Such lovely pictures and memories of your mom. She will be missed by everyone who knew her. <3
Love and miss you all. A wonderful tribute! Seeing pictures not only of Arli, Elizabeth and my BFF, but also faces from days gone by that warmed my heart deeply!
I will always remember Arli for her warm smile & the joy she had. We visited Arli & she gave me her Bible which she couldn't use with her hands anymore due to her MS. May the Lord comfort you with His Word, "To be absent from the body, is to be present with the Lord." As a Believer in Jesus Christ, He gives those who accept Him the gift of salva...
The first party I attended with BOYS was at Arli’s house. It seemed very advanced at the time. We met by accident a few years after HS at the Tower of London. She was a wonderful friend! Thank you for posting this fitting tribute!
I was in junior high the first time I saw Tony Axiotis (someday to be my husband) at Arli's house. He was with Richard Muhlstein (whose son Jason eventually became our son Michael's best friend). Aunt Ann always let us be ourselves. I stayed there as much as I could on weekends and summer vacations. My Lithuanian relatives would party in the liv...
Rich, Liz and Evan, What a beautiful memorial you have created. Arli would be pleased. She was so warm, loving, and kind and I am so grateful to have had her in our lives. Arli was a wonderful mom and it was a joy to watch Liz and Susan grow up together, just like sisters. I have wonderful memories of the many times we went to Camp Casey together, ...
What a beautiful presentation of a beautiful Woman! Thank you Rick for sharing!
(((💞💔💖💛💖💔💞)))
Such a warm tribute you your wife Rich and your mom Liz. Thanks for sharing all your memories with us!
Arli, I love you and miss you, but I know that you are with your heavenly Father now and we will meet again one day!
I miss you, Arli, and treasure the memories of our friendship!
We have thought about Arli so many times in recent years but did not know of her passing last year. We have fond memories of our years in Iowa City together, visits to Chicago, and from our visit to your home in Shoreline. Since our son moved away fro Anacortes we have not been back to Washington. Rest in peace, Arli.
