Arlene Vicki Leitermann, of Caro, formerly of Bay City, a beloved wife, mom, nana, and sister, who entered eternal rest on Saturday, January 3, 2026, at the age of 73. Born in Bay City on September 28, 1952, to the late, John and Dorothy (Borton) Jaskiewicz, Arlene touched countless lives through her warmth, caring nature, and protective spirit for her family.

Arlene dedicated her career as a Food Service Technician, a Beautician, and volunteered at various schools where her love for nurturing others shone brightly. She cherished spending time with her family and delighted in baking, painting ceramics, and sewing. A true romantic at heart, Arlene enjoyed watching Hallmark movies and was an avid fan of daytime dramas like "Days of Our Lives" and "General Hospital". She found joy in the simple pleasures of life, such as playing solitaire and her visits to Florida to soak up the sun with her loved ones. She was always delighted to see and smell her favorite flowers, Lilies of the Valley.

She is survived by her devoted husband, Max Leitermann; daughters, Ann (Rick) Greenhoe, Amanda Neitzel, and Jessica (Shane) Bates; and sons, Chad (Rhena) Leitermann and Austin Leitermann.
