Brook, Arlene Ruth

Arlene is survived by Donald Brook, her husband of 56 years; daughters, Leslie Ann Brook, Lake Echo, N.S., Linda Arlene Brook, Calgary, Alta., and Karen Allyson Brook (Sol Avisar), Ottawa, Ont.; son, David Andrew (Marilyn) Brook, Lawrencetown, N.S.; grandchildren, Sara, Adam Yulanda, Evan, Carson, Claire and Sophia; great-grandchildren, Thomas and Brooklynn; sister, Joanne (Sheridan) Brown, St. Stephen, N.B.; sisters-in-law, Maxine Brook, Victoria, and Bea Thomas, St. Stephen, N.B.; brother-in-law, Carson McGlinchey, St. Stephen, N.B. There are also many nieces and nephews to whom she always gave great love, care and friendship. Arlene never forgot her many cousins, aunts and uncles throughout her life.
She was predeceased by brother, David Thomas, and sister, Joyce McGlinchey.
Arlene was a devout Christian, spending as much of her time as possible in the closest United Church in every posting where her family resided. These efforts included many UCW fundraisers, years as church elder and everyday care of a church woman’s duty. She was a very good artist and painter in watercolours. Many of these paintings will live on in the hearts, minds and homes of those who knew and loved her. Grammy, as she was known by her seven grandchildren, and GG by her two great-grandchildren, was sure never to forget a birthday, Christmas, Valentine’s, Easter or Hanukkah, when little gifts and cards meant so much.
