Arlene Kuhfuss Obituary

PITTSFIELD, MA - Our dear mother transitioned to Heaven in Pittsfield, MA on May 14, 2023 at the age of 93. Arlene was born in West Chester, PA and moved to Tennessee in 1958. Arlene was a wonderful mother who was dedicated to her family. She had many friends, was an outstanding cook, loved serving at church and school, and helping close friends in Kingsport.

Arlene was preceded in death by her parents Charles and Clara Moore, her siblings Alvin, Austin, Alice Moore, Anna Young, her first husband John Doster, and her second husband Herb Kuhfuss.

Arlene is survived by her children from her first husband, Joanne Morin and John Doster; her grandchildren, John Curtis Doster, Trey Morin, Katie Velis; her great-grandchildren Judah, Knox, and Hailey Doster, Maverick Morin and her special niece Nancy Williams. Arlene also had a loving and supportive relationship with Herb Kuhfuss's two children, Gordon Kuhfuss and Gail Thomas.

There will be a small memorial service for family only.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
