Arlene I. Gresczyk, 83, Moose Lake, died peacefully with her family by her side on Monday, April 11, 2022 in Moose Lake Village.  She was born on September 26, 1938 to Anton and Lillian Cegla.  Arlene grew up in Denham where she attended grade school until going to Willow River High School where she graduated in 1955.  She was very proud to let you know that she excelled in school and got to skip 3 ^rd grade so she actually graduated a year early!  On September 10, 1955, Arlene married Florian Gresczyk in St. Isidore's Catholic Church, Sturgeon Lake.  They lived in Barnum and Denham before settling in Moose Lake where they farmed over the years.  Arlene worked for Mercy Hospital and Bonk's Egg Farm before going to work at the State Hospital as a Food Service Worker in 1978.  Arlene worked at the State Hospital until 1995 when they closed and then she was transferred to MSOP where she worked as a security counselor until retiring in 2003.  Arlene and Florian also owned the Moose Lake Motel from 1986 until 1989.  Arlene was a very hard worker her whole life.  She loved the MN Twins, travelling, polka music, and playing cards, especially cribbage and smear.

Arlene was preceded in death by her husband, Florian, Sr. in 2008; 5 siblings: Frances Kozlowski, Martha Cegla, Bernard Cegla, Edward Cegla, and Leonard Cegla; and a son-in-law: Rick Peterson.

She will be lovingly remembered by her 3 children: Cheryl Peterson of Moose Lake; Florian Gresczyk, Jr. of Moose Lake; and Bob (Melissa) Gresczyk of Moose Lake; 12 grandchildren: Sarah (Steve) Aldrich, Matt (Katie) Delly, Ryan (Jasmine) Peterson, Tyler Peterson, Mandi (Tom) Hinson, Brandon (Katie) Gresczyk, Allison Gresczyk, Bobby (Anna) Gresczyk, Megan (Nate Alderman) Gresczyk, Maverick Karsky, Tyler Karsky, and Payton Gresczyk; 16 great grandchildren: Stella, Jack, Olivia, Emmett, Henry, Garrett, Elijah, Sebastian, Alexa, June, Jameson, Malachi, Madison, Olivia, Ridley, and Mesa; 4 siblings: Marge Pietrzak, Jean LaChance, Ernie Cegla, and Carol Priem; and numerous nieces, nephews, and friends.
