Arlene had such a passion for dancing, music, camping, and knitting. She and father danced many nights in the living room of their home. She was a devoted loving wife, mother, grandmother and such a friend showing love, strength and compassion to everyone. Arlene is survived by her loving children, sons Thomas Arthur (Marjean) and William James, daughter Connie (Wayne) Roinestad, grandchildren Sarah, Alex, Eric, Leslie, Justin, Mason, Nick, Anna, great granddaughter Emma Vi, life long friend Joan Dubois Anderson and many extended family members. She was preceded in death by her loving husband Arthur, who passed away on September 8, 2000, her parents, Conrad and Ina Kling, brother Roger and sister Melva.
