Dear Selena and Family (especially our Dear Friend Regina) Joel & I are very sorry for your loss and Our Prayers and Tears are with you all during this difficult time, but one thing we know for sure is that Mr. Arnold is definitely with our “Heavenly Father” and no longer suffering!

Selena, I know the pain you personally are feeling. I experienced it recently with the home going of my precious partner. But the same God who has been with me will also be with you to comfort your heart through it all. I am sure that he and Gerry have already met in heaven. And like Gerry, he is no longer suffering but has been healed in every way. I believe that the time is very short when God will bring all of His children home.
May the Peace of Christ cover your family with comfort at this difficult time. Ewell was such a strength for his family and a wonderfully kind man to all who knew him. He was always smiling each time I saw him and he always remembered me. I am praying for the entire Arnold family; you have my deepest condolences in the loss of your beloved father and grandfather.
