Deepest loving sympathy to Darlene
and family!
Helping celebrate at my mom’s 90th birthday!
Arnie was a nice, kind man known for his gardening skills that he and Darlene often shared with us. We enjoyed lunches out or Dairy Queen treats with them. He will be missed but now he will be reunited with their daughter. RIP, Arnie.
