Arlene Catalano..I have been trying to put into words what I wanted to say here. I wanted to say thank you for welcoming me into your home, into your family, and into your lives. Some of the best times of my life have been spent with your family. With my family being so far away, it has always been a pleasure spending time with yours. I miss having coffee together just to talk. I miss your garlic and spinach on crusty bread!!!! Thank you for always including me as part of your family when things ended differently. Love, Tracey

Arlene, as always you have to win. I’m the oldest sister 😊 and I’m supposed to go first. You’re supposed to go after me. You look beautiful when you smile. When you get to heaven don’t give orders. Kiss Mommy for me 😊Love you Sis, Anna and Angie (my Italian cat).

Although we never met in person, mainly due to the ocean between us, we did talk from time to time and we always planned to meet at some point. It really is a shame we didn’t get round to it. RIP Aunt Arlene. Love from the Russo’s from across the pond

I have so many beautiful LOUD :) memories and moments with my aunt that were always filled with lots of LOVE, always welcoming, and can’t forget the food. With all my family in Florida including my Aunt Arlene, it was not the quantity of time we spent, but it was the quality of time when we did have those moments. She made them special. Even when Rocco, her great nephew , and I last saw her at Thanksgiving, she was sure to offer food with all the strength in her and make sure she had a gift or two for Rocco. He too will grew older knowing his Aunt Arlene!!! I could go on and on about my memories growing up with my Catalano family in Monticello, NY to the memories in FL, but the bottom line is our family LOVES HARD through good and tough, LOVES FAMILY through good and bad, and tries our dam best to carry on traditions with lots of FOOD. Did I mention food?!?! Aunt Arlene knew this best. We miss her and take peace in knowing we will see her again! LOVE YOU ALL BIG!
Love your neice Serena and great nephew Rocco

My memories of Arlene are from my childhood. She was loving and generous, with a big heart and a contagious smile. She always had my family over, as my brother Peter was in love with her daughter Angela. After my brother passed at a young age, it was Arlene who played a big part in my family’s healing. God bless you, Arlene, and give Peter a big kiss for me.

My deepest condolences and Prayers for comfort to all of Arlene’s family. May the memories of her life live on for generations to come. 🙏🏻❤️

I worked with Arlene at the Saint Cloud Home Depot She was an inspiration to me. She has such a great love for her family. She was a great advocate for others. I will always remember many conversations we had and the great advice she gave me. Big hugs to the whole family. You are all in my family's thoughts and prayers.
