She was predeceased by her mom and dad Phyllis and Ray Webb, and brother Ken Webb. She is survived by her son Dave (Pam), grandchildren Emma and Noah of Calgary, and daughter Lori (Ken) of Narol.

Prior to retirement, she worked at Gordon Howard Seniors Center in Selkirk where she met many new friends. She was a proud Nana to Emma and Noah, always full of stories about her grandchildren. As per Arlene's wishes, there will be no service. If friends so desire, a donation in her memory can be made to the Arthritis Society Prairie Division - Manitoba/Nunavut. To Those Whom I Love & Those Who Love Me When I am gone, release me, let me go. I have so many things to see and do, You mustn't tie yourself to me with too many tears, But be thankful we had so many good years. I gave you my love, and you can only guess How much you've given me in happiness. I thank you for the love that you have shown, But now it is time I traveled on alone. So grieve for me a while, if grieve you must, Then let your grief be comforted by trust. It is only for a while that we must part, So treasure the memories within your heart. I won't be far away for life goes on. And if you need me, call and I will come. Though you can't see or touch me, I will be near. And if you listen with your heart, you'll hear, All my love around you soft and clear. And then, when you come this way alone, I'll greet you with a smile and a 'Welcome Home'.

I first met Arlene at the River East Personal Care home where my mother lived between the years of 1994-2000. I volunteered with her in a program for the elders that we both enjoyed sharing. Even after she had moved on to other work, we stayed in touch and enjoyed the occasional meal out. Dave and Lori, your Mum and I shared the joy of being grandmothers and always shared our family stories. May she rest in peace. - Posted by: Joan Kolbauer (Friend) on: Mar 30, 2019
