Aubrey was born November 9, 2008 to Grover G. and Laura E. (Gilbert) Arlt II, in Sturgis.
Aubrey lit up every room she entered. If you knew Aubrey, she immediately had a special place in your heart. Aubrey loved listening to music, singing around the house with her mom and dad, and taking long golf cart rides around the local country roads.
Aubrey also enjoyed frequent visits to the zoo, where she loved to take in all the new sounds and smells. But more than anything Aubrey loved “love”. She thrived on it. Smooches were her favorite, even though she was known to block a few here, and there.
She was so sweet and loving. She was truly an angel on earth, who now has her wings.
Aubrey was a long-time student at the Waldron Learning Center in Coldwater Michigan, where she made many friends over the years and was loved deeply by many. Her longtime teacher Maurine always held a place in her heart!
Aubrey is survived by her parents Grover and Laura Arlt II; her grandparents Grover (Barb) Arlt; Shawn Westfall; Brain Gilbert; her aunts and uncles Jessica (Steve) Bucklin; Laurali (Jerry) Gates; Andrew “Bub” Arlt; Travis Gilbert; Carry (Josh) Sears; Jill (Alex) Bassage; her great grandmother Eunice Gilbert; her grandma Karen Hoard; her dogs Bo; Jack; Maize; and the staff at Waldron Learning Center.
Aubrey was preceded in death by her great grandparents Rosemary Arlt; Norm Gilbert; and her great aunts Diana Rose; and Aunt Mickey.
Memorials may be directed to The Waldron Learning Center and/or the family for funeral expenses. Make checks payable to Grover Arlt.
