Her parents were Amos and Myrtle Sword. She joined the Church of the Brethren at an early age. She moved to Gove County Kansas in 1924. She taught school and was married on Dec. 24, 1939 to Elzie Dale Boss. They lived in Coloado and Kansas but spent most all of their married life in Gove, KS. After Arlene moved to Gove, she transfered her membership to Gove Methodist Church in 1945 and was a very active member in all church organizations there. She was also active in the community organizations such as PTA, EHU, and Friendship Club. In 1983 she moved to Republic, Missouri to be closer to her daughter because of failing health.
