Arthur Allan Eldridge, age 67, retired Aeronautical Engineer for NASA passed away on Tuesday, September 7, 2021. Arthur was born September 22, 1953 in Louisville, Kentucky to John and Leona (Brainer) Eldridge. He is preceded in death by his parents, brother John Wayne Eldridge and sisters June Elmyra Eldridge and Donna Lee Eldridge. Survived by his daughter Angela (Charles) Steele, brothers Vernon and David Eldridge, granddaughters Mila Capehart, Ava Steele, Stella Steele and Annabella Steele, extended family members and many friends. Per Arthur's wishes no services will be held.
Arthur came from very humble beginnings and he aspired to do great things in his life. Throughout his life he pursued his interest and was mostly successful in his endeavors. His accomplishments at NASA, the US Air Force and later while teaching at a few private and public Universities, opened new paths to him to share his passion. He met a few lifelong friends and love ones along the way and achieved a greater appreciation of his faith in God and Jesus Christ. It was this growth in wisdom that made him realize that his greatest blessings were his Mother, Daughter, grand daughters, family and friends.
“If I had just one wish in this life”, he said, “it would be that people would find God and realize the blessings that each of us are given both large and small. Then together we may all find peace on Gods golden shore.
God bless you and cherish your faith because it’s your key to everything. “
