Lynda West wrote a sympathy message

“I'm very sorry to learn of Arlene's passing. See was a much loved member of the computer center at Duquesne University. She was a steady presence during a time of transition and turmoil. She was a coach and mentor to students and employees alike. I enjoyed our connections via Facebook after our retirements. Rest in Peace, Arlene.”
