I met Arnie at the Rainbow Grill. He was very kind to me and I am so sorry to know he had passed. Sending warm wishes to his family....

Arnie was my teacher and my friend. It was my privilege to know him. A wonderful, talented, kind, and gentle person has passed from the earth.

I was fortunate to know Arnie throughout my school career. We were in the music programs at PS77, JHS123 and James Monroe. I always knew Arnie would be talented enough to perform professionally. I am deeply saddened to hear of his passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

I met Arnie at Paul Eccardt's  jam sessions and know he was a talented vocalist and pianist.  It's too bad I didn't know Arnie for a longer period of time because I would have liked to have him record some of my original music.  May Arnie rest in peace. God Bless

We were so sorry to hear about Arnie's passing. He was so talented and a kind person ;our thoughts are with you and your family at this time. May he rest in peace.

Met Arnie when I was in PS77 where we played in the orchestra. He was such a talented musician, immediately ascending to first stand, first chair violinist. We also attended JHS 123 and went to Shorehaven Beach Club. In addition to being a good musician he was very smart, very witty and well-liked. He enriched the lives of those who knew him.

We met Arnie when he first came to Five Towns College looking to teach. Immediately everyone was impressed by his exceptional musical skills, but also for gentleness as a person. He had a wry-sense of humor, but he always had the patience for all his students, and he was admired and respected by everyone at the College. Later, he began to perform at the College's theater, and everyone enjoyed his entertaining very much. Arnie was a caring human being, and all his students and colleagues are saddened to hear of his passing. He will be sorely missed by all.

You are and always will be my friend...Love Tommy
