I do not have any memories with Arthur but heard good things about him. I married Arthur´s grandson and sadly my children (Arthur and Nancy´s 3 great grandchildren) never met him, Nancy or his family. I came across this in hopes to makes connections with his family. I am sure Nancy would have loved that. [email protected]

I will always remember the first time we went to visit Nancy's home town . I believe it was in Ohio.We were so amazed that where was only one stop light in that town. What fun it was and so long ago. We all have great memories that were made with you. Since you were the oldest we all looked up to you . Thank you for that. I'm sure your in heaven now with your Mom and dad. Also Aunt dukie always thought the world of you as well as Uncle Ernie. May you rest in peace. We all love you. Love from Uncle Ernie ,Kenny ,Freddy and Cheryl
