We plan on being with you Aug 22 to celebrate Arch's life. He was so dear to the Ham/Wiler families, as you surely must know. As a child, having the Nesbitts as neighbors was a joy, and those sweet memories have remained until this day. Arch's affectionate nature and wonderful sense of humor made him very special.We regret his passing, but rejoice envisioning Heaven's celebration.

My sympathies to the family and friends of Arch, I was saddened to hear of his passing. Though I only knew him later in his life, I enjoyed his stories of his time in the Air Force and appreciated and was often amused by his outlook on life. He will be missed.
