On November 23, 1931, Arlene Clara Neppel was born to Max and Rose Neppel, the last of seven children, in a little farmhouse not far from Willey, IA. She attended schools near Willey, IA and Lidderdale, IA, and at St. Angela Academy in Carroll, IA. She moved to Carroll with her beloved mother, Rose, as a young woman.

On June 10, 1953, Arlene and Joseph Dalhoff were married at St. Lawrence Church, Carroll, by the Rev. Poeckes. Arlene and Joe initially made their home in Fort Smith, AR at Camp Chaffee during Joe's commission in the U.S. Army during the Korean War. The couple then lived in Council Bluffs, IA, before settling in Carroll in 1957. Arlene helped Joe operate the family business, Joe's Paint Center, for 40 years, and while Joe was known as "Woofer", Arlene was his "Honeybunch". In 2000, Arlene sold the building in which the family business operated following Joe's passing.

Arlene was an active wife and mother. She enjoyed meeting with her neighbors, having coffee with friends, playing golf, walking around Swan Lake, playing cards, and keeping up with Joe's gardening. In their younger years, Arlene and Joe enjoyed warm summer days with their children at Lake Panorama and were involved in the Jaycees, Knights of Columbus, Elks, Carroll Swim Team, and Little League Baseball, among other community organizations. Arlene had an impressive collection of angel figurines, and her children will always remember her as an angel herself.

Arlene was a member of St. John Paul II Parish, St. Lawrence Ladies Guild, Catholic Daughters of the Americas, and the St. Anthony Hospital Auxiliary. She enjoyed volunteering at the New Hope Village Store, and the St. Anthony Hospital Atrium Desk and Gift Store. She loved visiting her children and grandchildren and taking local trips with friends. She considered travels to the holy sites of Medjugorje and those in Italy as spiritually rewarding. She attended daily mass and frequented the adoration chapel as long as she was able.

Arlene is survived by her children, Stan, Ann (Michael), Renee (Thomas), Thomas (Jill), Jane (Jerry), and Jeff (Tara); grandchildren, Paul, Rob (Rachel), Justin, Lisa, Joe, John, Mary, Abby, Emily, Jacob, Jessica, and Jarrett; sisters-in-law, Orsola, Mary Lou, Patti, Darlene, and JoAnn; and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Joseph, on July 24, 1999; her parents, Max and Rose Neppel; her parents-in-law, Fred and Anna Dalhoff; her siblings, Arby (Helen) Neppel, Isabelle (Charles) Feld, Agnes (Don) Stoolman, Ralph (Jean) Neppel, Matthew (Lois) Neppel, and Melvin (Orsola) Neppel; her in-laws, Helen Neppel, Charles Feld, Don Stoolman, Jean Neppel, Lois Neppel, Virgil Dalhoff, Elmer and Arlene Heiman, Francis and Louise Dalhoff, John and Marjorie Gehling, Fred and Alene Dalhoff, Elmer and Edna Dalhoff, Gerald Dalhoff, Ray Hesch, Don Luchtel, Richard Maranell, John Stransky, and David Dalhoff.
