I wanted to express my sympathy to the Rosbottom family on your loss of Arlene on behalf of the Carlin family. She was my parents' financial advisor and I enjoyed taking them to meet with Arlene every once in a while because she was so happy to see them and loved telling me stories about my dad and his Newport buddies. She was also a HUGE help to me after my dad passed away and helped me with all of the financial repercussions. I will miss her friendly advise and reassuring manner. I am very sorry for your loss as I can imagine that she was a wonderful wife and mother.

My most heartfelt condolences to Ken, Trish, Steve and all of your extended families. It was shocking to hear of Arlene’s passing. I have so many fond memories of my childhood holidays being shared with the ‘Early girls’!! Arlene, always so upbeat and ready to create some fun. I know Mary would be so proud of her life’s accomplishments. I regret that I will be unable to attend services, but all will be in my thoughts and a special prayer of sympathy to Trish. Much love and remembrances, John Carignan.

Arlene was my financial advisor, but so much more... Her compassion and kindness helped me through my husband's death. I always believed she had my best interests at heart.
We often discussed our families, and, with obvious pride, she would speak of all of your accomplishments.
I will always keep her in my heart, mind and prayers. She was an angel sent by God to live with us for a brief period of time. I will always be grateful that I spent some of that time with her.
I am so very sorry for your loss.
Sincerely,
Betty Weeden

Arlene managed my mother's finances through Corrigan and did so with grace and humor. I remember the last time she spoke with my mother, last year, when my mother was 95 years old. Arlene was so kind, upbeat, and took time with all of us to understand my mother's finances. My mother thought so much of her.
Kind regards and sympathy to your entire family.

Arlene was one of the kindest and most selfless people I ever met. She helped me so much with her financial knowledge and common sense approach to planning. She was always interested in my point of view as a person and gave me smart advice. She helped others in need and always with a smile on her face. This news was such a shock because I had no idea she was fighting this disease. I just spoke to her a few weeks ago and she sounded as strong and supportive as ever.. Ever an optimist and always with a smile on her face, Arlene enriched my life. My most sincere sympathies to all her family and friends and know that your lives too have been enriched and that her positive spirit will always be with you. With much love, Jane Regan

Arlene has been my parents' financial advisor since they first went to Corrigan and always had the most lovely smile and calm demeanor and my dad enjoyed talking with her and discussing his investment strategies with her. Since his passing, she has been a rockstar explaining things patiently to my mom and siblings, as recently as three and a half weeks ago. Arlene was so very proud of her daughters and loved her traveling adventures. She will be missed on so many levels. You are all in our thoughts and prayers.

From the day Arlene entered the building of Newport Electric on Turner Road, we knew we wanted to keep her . Her personality, smile, viviousness and sparkling blue eyes was like a "Ray of Sunshine " entering our domain. Always a smile, kind words, and ability won over everyone who worked with her.
Her stories of Kenny packing up Kate and heading off to URI or Kate as a toddler, ironing and making tuna sandwiches for Arlene, were stories we cherished at lunch time. She always admitted she was not domestic, so her stories were always a special treat for us. A more genuine person I have never known.
Our most sincere condolences to her beloved family and may Arlene's spirit carry you all through these coming days. Mary Lou and Michael FitzGerald

Sarah brought me to Corrigan Financial after my husband passed away. I was terrified and confused - in general- and about finances in particular. Arlene really touched my life. Yes, charts and graphs were made - and were so very welcome to un-numeric me. But it was Arlene's personal caring and warmth and immediate connection that I will never forget. Her warm embrace is palpable in my memory. Thank you so very much Arlene.🙏🏻. What you had to offers is precious.

Our sincere condolences to the Early-Rosbottom family.. From personal experience, we know how painful the death of a loved one is. One thing that helped our family was reading words of consolation from The Holy Scriptures. One scripture that really warms our hearts is what our lord Jesus said in John 5:28 which reads: "Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out". The hope of a resurrection and seeing our loved ones again in the near future can give us much hope and comfort. If you would like to read The Holy Scriptures directly on the website, go to: www.jw.org. We pray that the words found in The Bible can soothe your hearts.
Sincerely, Maggie
