Dear Eva, Leah, and Family,
Arthur was an original! His deep form of caring often included humor. He helped us all laugh often. His sincerity in all that he did brightly shines in everything and every life he touched. He taught us all strength of character by example. His love for family, God, and country was fiercely loyal and heartfelt.
He will always live in the great memories he made with us all.

I am there in spirit.
With Much Love,
Liz

My deepest sympathy to all of Arthur's family and friends.

He was my dad's bestfriend and so much like an uncle to me and my sister that we would call him "Uncle Arthur". I'll always remember him for the love and care he gave to me and my family. He will be deeply missed.

Arthur, you will be missed by many, but especially by me. The count less stories & laughs that we shared will never be forgotten. You definitely made the world a better place for me & all my family. You put Kezer Falls on the map. Have a Dewars ready for me to share with you the next time we meet.

I got to know Mr. Talatinian as a student at the Parlin Jr. High and as a member of the School Committee. Please know that we will recognize his service to the children of Everett with a moment of silence in his memory at our next meeting Monday night.

Dear Phyllis, Arlene, Sandra and family,

As children growing up in Watertown, we were back door neighbors. I can remember the warmth and sincerety that was shared at that time so many years ago. We were so young and even though we moved away from Fairfield Street the memories lived on forever.

May the memories of the many happy times you shared with Arthur be the first ones you remember when you think of him. He was too young to be taken but, we hope that he finds peace and comfort in God's home.

Please know that you are all in our thoughts and prayers.

I am so sorry that he has left this world, but I know he is in a better place - free of his pain and suffering. My love, thoughts and prayers are with you all. God Bless you. ~ Linda and Luca Smith
