To my family and friends during our bereavement my heart felt condolences. I thank God for the time Arther (Poochie, which I lovingly called him) and I spent together. Arther you were more like a Big Brother than a cousin. You graciously and lovingly extended a warm welcome into your home and made me and others feel extremely special.
From pulling me on a sled as a child
Taking me roller skating
Sending Jones potato chips
Housing, transporting and feeding me
Being my confidant
I love you cousin
You will always be my HERO

You are all in our hearts and prayers during this difficult and trying time. God will see you through!

Arther was our bike trail friend. We will greatly miss his warm, friendly smile and kind words. We are not surprised to read in his obituary about his life of service and his love of family and humanity. We hope to honor Arther’s legacy of unity and love by modeling the same in our interactions with others. May you rest in peace dear friend. You were a beautiful gift to all who came in contact with you.
