Aunt Sister you were the matriarch of the Arrington family. You have left us with loving memories, funny stories to pass down, and a huge gap in our family tree. Thank you for loving ALL of us unconditionally. You will be missed. Shamica Arrington

Love Always, Letitia Walden

Aunt Sista words cannot express how I feel at this moment nor how much you meant to me. I have so many special memories with you and will cherish every single one of them. We spent many summers with you and all were during my birthday. You'd always make sure my day was special, inviting children in the neighborhood to share cake and ice cream with me. I cherish all the trips you took with me to skippers to buy lottery tickets and loved watching that big smile on your face when you had the winning ticket. You would always say don't forget me the next time you go up there. God doesn't give us more than we can bear. He decided it was time for you to take your place amongst the angels. Miss you dearly. RIP my angel πŸ™πŸ½πŸ’œπŸ•ŠοΈπŸ‘ΌπŸ½

Love Angie Smith

Every summer I would stay with you. You taught me how to sew. I made my outfits, including my prom gown. My first sewing machine was like yours, not exactly, but close 😊. Every year I looked forward to receiving a birthday card from you because I knew you sent me $2.00. I already miss you, but I know we'll still have those conversations. I love you Aunt Sister!❀️❀️

My thoughts and prayers goes out to the Arrington family. I remember Sister from the projects. She was on B Ave,and we stayed on C Ave. She was a very sweet person. She would come to our Church with Miss Beatrice Arrington when the church was on Holly street. Fannie Jones and Family

Sister was my cousin, but she felt more like an Auntie. I spent numerous days with she, Aunt Florence and my mom (Ella Mae) during my childhood πŸ’• She will always be a part of my heart and cherished memories. Rest easy my beautiful sweet Cousin πŸ’•

To the Arrington Family. I am sorry to hear the loss of your Sister. Please know your family is in my thoughts and prayers. May you find comfort knowing that others understand and share your loss. Spiritual virtual hugs to all. Peace and Love πŸ’—

Aunt Sister,

I love you so much. Words cannot express how i feel right now, but I'm comforted by that fact that you aren't hurting anymore. I am honored to have been able to spend the time with you that did. You were the backbone of this family and I will forever cherish every memory with you. God blessed us with a wonderful angel. Take your rest & kiss Aunt Faye for me.

Love Always, Stephanie "Nikki" Fields

Sister was definitely one of gentle spirits. Always had an encouraging word for me and loved to talk to my mom all the time day or night. Mom would say when I called. I will call you back. I am talking to Sister. Those were the good old days. She will definitely be missed but her memories always cherished. Rest easy cousin. Cynthia Cooper-King and Family

Many Prayers to the Arrington Family. RIP "Sister"
