In Memory Of
Arlene "Rene" Harding
1941 - 2017

HARDING, Arlene “Rene” age 75, of Cincinnati, Ohio passed away on Wednesday, March 15, 2017. She was born in Harrison, Ohio on November 28, 1941 to Henry and Norma Wierwille (nee Dubs).

She was a graduate of Mt. Notre Dame High School, who loved dance, music, mocha frappes, pizza, Skyline, and kissy time. She always had a smile to share and she never knew a stranger.

Rene was a Christian woman whose deep faith in Jesus Christ gave her great joy and strength. To many she was an inspiration and an overcomer because of her positive outlook on life despite many challenges due to her 36 year battle with MS.

She was preceded in death by her parents; brother, Hank Wierwille. Rene is survived by her beloved husband of 53 years Mathew D. Harding; children, Pamela (Douglas) Porter, Lorene "Lori" Harding, M. David Harding; grandson, Mitchell S. Porter; sister, Dottie Kien; and a host of other family members and friends.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, March 18, 2017 at 10 am to 12 pm, followed by lunch in the banquet hall at Vineyard Cincinnati Chapel, 11340 Century Circle East, Springdale, Ohio 45246

In loving memory of Rene, contributions may be made to SPCA Cincinnati, 11900 Conrey Road, Cincinnati, Ohio 45249.

We love you Mom!
