Arlene was a wonderful cook who made fry bread like no other. She was called the family chef because she would cook all the time, she was also known as the family hairstylist and would give perms to everyone. Arlene had her own food stand at the local pow-wows known as Arlene’s Fry Bread. Everyone loved her fry bread. She also used her cooking talents at the Jourdain-Perpich Nursing home in Red Lake.

She will be deeply missed by all her family and friends.
