Nancy, you may recall that my dad, G.B. Arnold, rode to work with Eddie to IBM every day for many years. Dad passed away last March. He would have been saddened to hear about Eddie. My condolences.

What a joy it was to have Eddie within our shepherd flock at church. He was an elder and elder emeritus while at Lakeview, and after our merge with Casa View, was attending worship as regularly as possible with his dear friend, Leonard, or daughter Nancy. Eddie was a devoted disciple of the faith, and will be forever remembered as just that. We rejoice with his heavenly reunion with his dear love, Ruth, and those that have gone before him. We wish for Nancy & Mutt, Tommy, and Ollie and family, the peace, hope, and love that comes from family, friends, and most of all Above.
