Arthur went to Moose Jaw to get his carpenter papers. He then got a job with the Broadview school unit as a carpenter. He built many classroom tables, desks for computers and kept things up to date. He built the family home in 1963 and lived there until he moved to the lodge.

Arthur loved to build, garden, hunt and go for country drives. He served on town council and church treasury at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church. He worked at his job for over 30 years til his retirement. He built a shop to have at home and a greenhouse for Ruby.
