Arlene was predeceased by her loving husband Ross in 1999; her parents, John and Mary Wolochatiuk; her brother Nicholas; and sister Edith. Arlene was born in Ethelbert, MB and attended school there until her graduation, then taught school on a permit basis. In July 1945 she married Ross, and shortly after they moved to Roblin, MB to enter into the retail business until her retirement. Arlene was deeply religious and a devout Catholic and remained active in the church and the Ukrainian Catholic Womens League. She loved entertaining, travelling, and playing Canasta with her many wonderful friends. Her family and relatives were the focus of her life and we will never stop missing her loving care and interest in our lives.
