     Miss Arlene was always so sweet.  She loved being a greeter at church and welcoming everyone at the doors.  She always had a smile on her face. She always wanted to share a hug with you. 
     The last few weeks when she needed a little bit of help, she was so out of her comfort zone because she was always the one who did the helping.  She was so upset that the boys and men from church were doing her yard and that she couldn't do it herself.  

    I will miss Miss Arlene so much.  What a wonderful person she was.

Mrs Moore was our neighbor...I did the math....we’ve known her for 26 years!  Wow! She was a very kind  hardworking neighbor.  She’d put us to shame, how hard she worked at keeping her yard and flowers looking good. She also loved to go bowling. She was quite good at it too! 
She ALWAYS made sure to make my children feel special on their birthdays and during the holidays. Little Lance can’t eat peanut butter so every year on Easter she would give him a special Handmade Easter egg made by Epworth Church. 
We swapped recipes when we stood at the fence to visit and catch up on eachother’s day. We’d also call each other on the phone to ask her to meet me at the fence so we could share a plate of food or she would share some of her homemade candy, cookies, pumpkin rolls,  chili cheese roll, and her famous congo bars.  
She was a very independent lady....
She loved her Church Family very much and she told me she loved them and that she missed them. 
I am proud to call her my friend and neighbor. We will miss her presence out in the yard, our talks at the fence and her friendship. 
What gives us comfort as we mourn for her is knowing that she loved the Lord and that she’s in Heaven. I’m sure Mr Orrin was there to greet her  when she arrived! She lived a long fruitful life!  We love and miss you Mrs Moore! 



Ms Arlene was such a sweet, kindhearted lady.  Without fail she would always ask me how my mother in law “Jeanette” was doing each Sunday. She would always say, “tell her I ask about her and I’m praying for her”. We would talk about all the activities she’d been doing that week. From cutting her grass and weeding, working in her flowers to making all kinds of goodies for whatever function the church was having next. You could always depend on Ms Arlene to come through for you. I would always hug her and tell her I wanted to be just like her when I grow up 😊. I will miss our talks and hugs sweet lady. Rest In Peace with the angels. I know heaven is much sweeter with you there. ❤️❤️

Ms. Arlene was my parent's neighbor. She loved working in her yard and feeding her hummingbirds. She admired her beautiful flowers and I was honored that she had shared some with me when I got married. She always thought of my sister and myself at Halloween, Christmas and Easter. She would load us up on some candy. Once my sister and myself had children of our own, she loaded our kids with candy at special times of the year. She loved to watch us in the yard.....whether we were playing or working in the yard. She was such a dependable person. I know she is with her husband walking in Glory. May she rest in peace. Thanks for all the sweet memories Ms. Arlene. 
Love,
