Arlene was born on January 25, 1983 in El Paso, Tx to father Cruz Gallardo Jr and mother Soledad Gallardo.
Arlene was a fashionista and had a love for shoes. When Arlene was diagnosed with breast cancer, the motivation to fight this illness was driven by the love she had for her sons and family.
She would show up to her chemotherapy/radiation sessions in her pencil skirts and high heels and when she was done, she immediately went back to work. She remained strong and brave during her final months.
She is survived by her brother Joseph Hernandez, his wife Elsa and sisters Wendy Beltran, her husband Leonel, Amy Gallardo and April Gallardo. Her nieces and nephews Sergio, Serena, Joey, Junior, Sarah, Analissa, Brianna, Izak, Marissa, Joleene and only grandniece Nelly
