I am so sorry for your loss. I loved Arlene. She was a very special lady. May God comfort you during this difficult time. ❤️❤️
I have so many fond memories of Arlene. As a student until the end of my career, she was always in the background. She was truly a pioneer in nuclear medicine as she saw many changes over the years. She was such a hoot and joy to be around. My heart is heavy for her family and close friends. I know you will miss her so! My love to you all!
I met Arlene many many years ago through our nuclear medicine community. We never worked together, but I would see her at meetings and the social events. She was always kind and funny. My deepest condolences to family and friends. Gone too soon.
Arlene was a joy to be around and work with. She will be missed.
Prayers for the family.
I remember her from days at Saint Francis. Really nice lady. God bless.James
I worked with Arlene for many years at GMH. We shared a love for our boys, the Braves, and Chipper! I will continue to think of her every time I see a game! She was loved by so many and will be missed for sure. Til we meet again, sweet friend. 💕
