Arnold had a great love for his family and especially enjoyed all the time with his grandchildren. His face would shine as the kids entered the house and the fun would begin. Arnold loved to spend time in his yard and garden, always ready for spring to come so the planting could begin. He would get the guitar out and play and sing for hours. Arnold had a talent for painting and would paint oil paintings of many different landscape scenes. He loved to spend time in the great outdoors and fish or just play with the grandkids. Arnold enjoyed collecting model cars and watching old western movies.
Arnold had accepted Christ as his savior and attended the Bates Creek Baptist Church. He enjoyed the fellowship of the church and was dedicated to reading the Bible. One of Arnold’s last Bible readings was from 1 Thessalonians 4, 13-18, a gift to him and his wish to leave to you, “But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherfore comfort on another with these words.
