We are sad to announce that Arlene passed away peacefully in Campbell River, B.C on September 11, 2015 with her family at her side.

Arlene, the youngest daughter of the late Bert and Gladys (Lenover) Nicholls, was born and raised in Chatham, Ontario and moved to Campbell River in 2004. She is predeceased by her loving husband James Massender, sisters Doris Grainger, Gertrude Torra and brother Donald Nicholls. Arlene will be dearly missed by her 4 children, Kathy, Vicky, Becky and Danny, 8 grandchildren, 15 great-grandchildren, 2 great-great-grandchildren, several nieces and nephews and friends. Loved by many and missed by all. Her memory will live on in all our hearts.

Thank you to all the kind and caring staff at New Horizons Community of Care for the love and support shown towards Arlene. We would especially like to thank Dr. Berg and everyone in the SCU unit for their amazing care.

Per Arlene’s wishes, a service will be held at a later date in Chatham, Ontario where she will be laid to rest with her loving husband Jim.
