Gale was my friend. He always helped others before himself. He spent hours last summer late at night telling me what serving our country in Vietnam was really like. He was my hero. He was a great father to Heather. A good man who will be missed for a very long time, and always remembered. There is no doubt that he is in the arms of the angels now. Rest in peace my friend. May God bless his family . . . my thoughts and prayers are with you.

I met Gale probably 20+ years ago when we worked at Leisure Time Resorts. After crossing paths many years later, his smile and heart had never changed. He was truly a sweetheart of a guy and Gale knows ... I still smell his cologne.

Gale was my favorite customer that would come into the PUD Everett office. We would have a fun chat each and every time. I was very sad to hear of his death. We will all miss his smiling face.

Mr Arnold was well known and respected as a member of Prevail Cr Un in Woodinville. We will miss his cheerful presence and hawaiian shirts.
