Arlene Kezon (nee Buonincontro), age 82, of Tinley Park passed away peacefully on January 14 in her beloved home surrounded by family.

Arlene was born on February 22, 1939 in Chicago to loving parents James and Jean Buonincontro. She was a graduate of Visitation High School, where she formed valued friendships that lasted more than 60 years. Shortly after, she met the love of her life, Ray; they spent many years traveling, golfing, and being extraordinary parents and grandparents.
