Nov. 20th, 2004 12:30 pmArlina G. Real-Iredale
Beloved wife, devoted daughter, oldest sister, favorite aunt and friend to many. Entered into God’s loving embrace on November 18, at the age of 47, at home, surrounded by her family. She was born in the Philippines on April 6, 1957, and came to the US in 1981. She lived in Portland and Denver before settling in the Sacramento area in 1989.
She is survived by her husband Michael, parents Artemio and Catalina, brothers Eulogio (Precy), Dominador (Janice) and Fidel (Jovi), and sisters Bernadette (Leo), Teresita (Orland) and Corazon (Frank). Also survived by many nieces and nephews, whom she loved as if they were her own.
Arlina was a Registered Nurse at Sutter General Hospital for many years, and more recently, with the State of California. She was a member of St. Charles Borromeo parish in Sacramento, where she served as a lay minister, catechist, and the wife of a deacon.
She touched the lives of many on her journey. Even in her illness, she continued to give courage and hope to those around her, and was, at the end, surrounded by a circle of love that stretched around the world. She will be missed.
Friends are invited for Visitation Sunday, November 21 from 4pm-8pm, Monday, November 22 from 12pm-8 pm, with a recitation of the Rosary at 7pm, both at Elk Grove Funeral Chapel, 9101 Elk Grove Blvd in Elk Grove. A Funeral Mass will be held Tuesday, November 23 at 11am at St. Charles Borromeo Catholic Church, 7584 Center Parkway.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Wellspring Women’s Center of Sacramento (3414 4th Ave, Sacramento, CA 95817).
