My thoughts and prayers are with the family  
I met Ms Arlean  at her last job that she worked . She worked part time evenings.  We would talk about the Lord every single evening at work.  We became good friends, exchanged phone numbers, she invited me and I attended her Christmas choir program in 2018.  She and I would keep in touch on a monthly basis after we both left the job .
I had not spoken to her for a while and couldn't find her number in my phone.

I looked her up  and my heart dropped .
I unexpectedly saw her Obituary.   I'm heartbroken.  She meant a lot to me.  I'm so saddened. 
If there is anything I can do...please family let me know.

Sincerely,
Thelma

It was an overdue breakfast date at the Cracker Barrel Restaurant on a Saturday morning.  She said in a FIRM VOICE mixed with love, " I like this place because the food is good." Between her small bites and chews, I would glance at her, only to find a FIRM look in her EYES; which pierced with sincerity and strength of her soul. Her eyes would say more than enough. But as she SPOKE,  you could count on it to be seasoned with encouragement and wisdom.  She LIT up our dining area as well with her lovely APPEARANCE.  As always, her dresses/skirts were a precious touch of modern long attire manifested  with abundance of confidence and satisfaction.

Evangelist Arlean, that's what I called her all the years I had the opportunity to know her. What a jewel that was sent in my life for guidance. I'm convinced many others can testify to the same. Everything about her was FIRM (solid) and she sparkled no matter what angle you viewed her life; SHE WAS FIRM AND SPARKLED for us all.  She loved the Lord and knew the Lord. She would hear from the Lord and was not ashamed to let you know what the Lord had told her. 

She enjoyed that restaurant known for its famous pancakes as well as the day spent. That day is a very special memory as I reflect on the time spent sitting with the woman that loved God and who accepted me as a friend many years prior to my walk with the Lord. I knew her for many years and she never changed her FIRMNESS as she lived for God.  She was a jewel for everyone and she always sparkled NO MATTER WHAT ANGEL YOU VIEWED HER, SHE SHINED.

MY SOUL FRIEND,
