Always looked forward to seeing Mr. Arnold. He always had a good softball or baseball story to share. Since my husband umpires we shared some stories. Going to miss seeing him coming into the tax office always so cheerful. Wishing you all Peace and Comfort during this difficult time. God Bless you all.
