so sorry for your loss we are thinking of you &your family
I am so VERY sorry to learn of Arlene’s death. She was a true Soul Mate of mine all through high school. Although she was a grade ahead of me–i.e. we were in different “Madison High cliques” we enjoyed and savored our special trust, friendship and sharing of love of music etc. We could share such trusted secrets that high school age pals have..and acknowledged how fortunate we were to have our connection–over & above the sometimes sticky high school cliques. I can still picture her in her blue corduroy cheerleading outfit.. I saw her last at the big Re-Union in Madison–BUT there were SO many people and it was so jammed down at “the Hole” that we just hugged & smiled but could hardly hear each other. We vowed to hook up” —I am SO sorry that we never were able to put that together, She was one GREAT gal.
We grew up with Peggy, Tom and Sandy in Mpls. Ihave been trying to find Peggy for so long, and came upon this. I remember Bob and Arlene . They were both such nice people. Im so sorry to hear that Peggy died. We had so much fun as kids. Please contact me Tom or Sandy.
