Arnold worked for Conoco Inc. in the Natural Gas and Gas Products Department for 31 years. He retired in 1994. He enjoyed hunting, camping, 4-wheeling, and maintaining his "immaculate" yard. He loved spending time with family and especially the little "greats" the later of his years. Arnold was a man of faith. He was a member of Glad Tidings Church where he faithfully attended. He enjoyed the fellowship and gatherings of friends at church socials.
We are eternally grateful for the time we had with him and the lessons gleaned from his example and we take solace in the belief of a heavenly reunion with him in the near future.
