So sorry to hear of my cousin's passing. Arlene, Chrissy, Wayne and I had such fun together as kids. Condolences to her family.

My Sister Arlene had a heart of gold. Loved her Family and Animals.
Now you will join up the entire Family Members who've been waiting
on you - time catch's us all - Arlene when you meet Chrissy tell her
both of you broke my heart! When my number comes up I will look
you guys up and talk about the days gone by.

I miss you all - Your Brother Wayne

To my Sister Arlene - its seems like yesterday but in reality it's been good and not so good. As your Brother Wayne
I will miss you - as I miss your entire Albrecht family. You've done a swell job over your many years and as my Sister I can only say - when you get you're going - tell them all they are missed. First Pap (Johnny), Then Mom, then Wayne, Then Chrissy, and then Shawn and now you. How sad! When you get where you're going you will meet with your girl friends - Pasty White-cotton & Jeanett Gray your old buddies from your younger years. If you see
them - tell them all they are all missed. The old days seemed to have flown by. You did a hell of alot good while
living and you set the standards - by which your's and there's will be forever remembered. Ya know whose next
either Linda or me. I'm sorry I didn't visit but the virus was flying around. It goes to say that soon I will be following
the lineage in the near future as well. I'm going to be cremated and buried in a military cemetary. Kath wants to
be cremated and buried with her Mother - that will be done. She's not doing so well her condition is at least
three times worse than ever. No cure - want to die nobody should live like this she says. I hear it daily.
Both my girls are doing OK both are working and their kids are now adults. Where did all the time go?
I remember Mom always reading her Bible I'm sure she will be glad to greet you as will Wayne and Shawn.
-
Miss you Sister - Like I miss Chrissy who broke my heart as well. Tears in my eyes as I write this and
knowing your gone like so many before us is tough to handle. God Bless you Arlene you were & are
a great Sister - tell the gang I won't be long - I will search for you all - God Bless Your Brother Wayne
