Dick is survived by his wife of 63 years, Mary Kennedy Arnold; son, James Kevin Arnold (Vicki) of Huntsville, AL; brother, Robert H. Arnold of Williamsburg; and son-in-law, Kevin Layo. He is also survived by his three grandchildren, Andrew Belair of Syracuse, NY, Aaron Belair of San Francisco, CA, Evan Belair of Massena, NY; and two great-grandchildren, Madeline and Mason McDonald of Massena, NY, all of whom brought an enormous amount of happiness and pride into their grandfather’s life.
