Jan. 10, 1920 - Jan. 24, 2013

Arlean F. Sadler departed this life for her heavenly home on Thursday, Jan. 24, 2013, surrounded by her beloved daughter and son-in-law. She was born Jan. 10, 1920, in Fauquier County, Va.  

She was a telephone operator for Chesapeake Potomac in Washington, D.C., Indiana Bell and AT&T, retiring in 1989 after 32 years of service.

Arlean loved her family and was a devoted mother to her son, Roger D. Sadler and his wife, Sherry, Chesterfield, Mo., and to her daughter, Mona L. Shoffner and her husband, Jim, Kokomo.

She was preceded in death by her son, Ronald E. Knott, Washington, D.C.; her two sisters, Marie Shuey and Mae MacWelch, both of Alexandria, Va.; and her brother, Richard Shipp, Alexandria, Va.

Arlean was a proud grandmother of three, Marli Jo Cook, Trevor Sadler and Makenna Sadler. She was also grandmother to her two “special grandsons,” Gizmo and Charlie.

Arlean was a member of the Pioneers of America and Ambassadair Travel Club. Her hobbies included knitting, bowling, reading, watching television, walking and square dancing.

Arlean will be sincerely missed by her family and friends.
