The only son of Will and Cora Arrington, Willie was self-employed for over 15 years at A-1 Mobil Service Station, located on the corner of 30th and Keystone Avenue. His business was a neighborhood icon. Respected and loved by the community, Willie was a member of Greater St. Mark Missionary Baptist Church. Willie served as a medical technician in the U.S. Army for three years during WW II.

Arrington, Terri L. Finkton (Keith), 8 grandchildren, 19 great-grandchildren and a host of other family members and friends. Willie and Geneva Arrington will be forever missed.
