To the Haunschild Family: I am sorry to learn Arlene has passed. Arlene sat near me at work, and it was during that time I came to see her strength and faith. Arlene would face each day always believing in her God and the family she dearly loved. We often shared our spiritual beliefs together. She adored her family & beautiful grandchildren and was so proud of their accomplishments. Conversations about them always brought a smile and laughter to her. Arlene was always kind and caring to everyone. And she made the best homemade Door County Cherry Jam that she shared with our team. I'll hold those happy memories of this great lady. May God bring comfort to your family during this difficult time. Arlene, you have completed the race. What a joy it must be to hear, "Well done, good & faithful servant". Finally you are home and at peace with your Lord & God.
