Arthur Berthiaume Obituary

Arthur, or "Tex" as he was known to everyone that knew him, was
many things in his long lifetime; son, WWII vet, harmonica player,
chicken rancher, home builder, husband, father, grandfather and
great grandfather. Most of all he was a character and when God
made him, he broke the mold. He was our dad and as eccentric and
curmudgeon-y as he was, he loved us and always made sure we
had whatever we needed. I would say "Rest in Peace, Tex" but
even in Heaven, I know that Grampy will be working day and night
on those mansions of gold, making sure they're fit for us to move
into when we get there.
Visitation is scheduled from 2:30 p.m. - 4:00 p.m. on Saturday, November 7, 2015 at Doughty-Calhoun-O'Meara.
We love you dad and we'll see you soon!
