Condolences

I will sure miss Arlene Allen. We've had a special friendship over the last 30 years and I will forever hear her voice calling "Hey Woodmay-an". There was a huge sense of humor hiding under that seemingly quiet exterior, but when it came out, it brought laughter and smiles. Nothing but good memoriies of "Mom Woman" Arlene.

To the Allen Family,

I've known Arlene ever since I began working at Longenecker Pharnacy. I remember opening up on Sundays to work with Tommy and Arlene. Those were the days when things were so simple. I loved working with her. She was such a sweet person, always cared about each and everyone of us. The community loved her every year as Mrs. Claus at the open house. 
Todd and Charlene, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. We know Tommy was waiting for her with open arms. They are together again❤️
Arlene will be greatly missed!

So sorry to hear about your loss of Arlene. My sister Merrillee Lloyd and I always enjoyed visiting her and when Anna and Harold Murphy were together it was good time. She had Christmas tree in every room! She's now with Anna and Harold.

 I went to school and graduated with Arlene's daughter Charlynn. I remember Arlene working at Longenecker's. She was always pleasant and soft spoken. Such a sweet person. I pray that God will bring you peace and comfort during this difficult time.
