I had the pleasure of meeting Arvid at work he came in with his wife's rings in a plastic container she had just passed away and he would carry them around it was the sweetest thing. I was in love with his work he had made me a turquoise ring and it was beautiful I wear it all the time. He invited me to the orange belt shop and I cut and polished my first stone there with him. I've been wanting to go and see him but to discover he passed just broke my heart I wished I would of spent more time at the shop with him he truly left a great memory with me. 

I first met Arvid when he was teaching silversmithing at local high school. He guided me to go on and try more complicated projects than most of the students as I had some experience long years ago.        
 Lost track of him for a few years and was delighted to get to spend time with him once more thru Orange Belt. The shop times and potlucks when he attended were my bright spots. 
I will always cherish the moments and memories spent with this wonder and patient man. 
God's blessings Arvid
