How very sad, tragic, that such a nice caring man should have to leave us. When helping me and a neighbor here at Lake Waukomis, he put those qualities on display. He will be sadly missed. Our sympathy and prayers to his family.

Arlie was one of the people I met when I first moved to Lake Waukomis. He was recommended and lived up to his recommendation. Also was one of the most interesting people to talk to. We spent more time talking. I think, than it took to perform the work. Always looked forward to seeing him.
My deepest sympathy to Mrs. Fagan and all of the family. He will be missed but held in memory as a friend by many in our community.

May your hearts soon be filled of wonderful memories. I will remember Arlie as one who truly loved being out on the water and running "the old iron". He will certainly be missed by his fellow engine collectors.

Betty and kids, my prayers are with you all at this time.
I loved Arlie like a brother. We had such a good time when we took the kids to church camp.
He will be missed by so many.
Love to you all.
