Born in Perth Amboy, to the late Luke and Julia Coyle, Arlene was one of six children. After High School, she met and later married John McNichol and the couple settled in Denville where they would raise their family. Arlene was an exceptional homemaker and devoted much of her time to her children’s activities. She could also be found donating time to her community and the Sisters of Christian Charity of Morris Catholic. She enjoyed cooking, baking Irish soda bread and cookies at Christmas, spending time at her shore house and spending the day at the casino, but above all, she loved spending time with her family.
Surviving are her loving husband John of 49 years, her children John Jr. and his wife Beth, Elizabeth McNichol, and Patrick and his wife Sheryl; her adoring granddaughters Casey and Taylor; her sister Judith Fadden; her brothers Luke, Patrick, Dennis, and Kenneth; and many other loving relatives and friends.
