Arlyne Adele Larrabee, 81, of Sunrise Beach Village passed away April 14, 2013. She was born to Ralph and Hazel (Price) Morwood in Houston on April 17, 1931.
For many years, Arlyne and the love of her life, Peter Craig Larrabee, were owners of Lakeside Marine in Seabrook, Texas, where they raised their three children before retiring to Rockport, Texas, in 1976. She was always active in her community, a loving homemaker and an artist later in life.
