Not sure what to say?

My Condolences to Stets Family and Friends. I did get to visit the Family briefly during visiting hours. I enjoyed running into Stet at the Transfer Station, Hannaford or where ever we met up! He always had a kind word to say and would like to hear about the last place I traveled to. I would have enjoyed talking about "Local History " with him, however that did not come up in the short time we had to speak. He will be missed by everybody.

By an extremely improbable sequence of events (I married Eunice Stetson after Arnold's father Richard Stetson died) Arnold came to jokingly refer to me as his "stepfather" although I am 10 years younger than Arnold. Eunice and I very much enjoyed our visits with Arnold and Honey over the years. I'm going through some of Eunice's old pictures and do have one of Arnold with an early hot-rid and his much younger stepbrother Rom Niles climbing over it. While Eunice died in 2016, I'll also...

So sorry for your loss. As a child I spent a lot of time at Arnold's Dad's home on Everett Park. The family was always excited when Arnold came by. He was always gentle and kind. Thinking of you all during this sad time.

Stet always had a good word to say and would I say he was opinionated, yes but a good man.
I have known Stet since coming to New London in 1964 buying his in-laws restaurant. Over the years he was a frequent customer.
Tracey and my condolences to Honey, Suzanne and Scott.

Prayers for you all in this time of sorrow.

May God our Father of all comfort be with your family in this difficult time.

Dear Honey, Stet’s family and friends-
Sending healing thoughts, prayers and hugs to you all. May your hearts always hold precious memories. My sincere condolences. May Stet be at peace.

May he rest in paradise, thinking of you Honey and sending you comforting hugs.

Honey, Scott and Sue, I'm sorry to hear of Arnold's passing. I always enjoyed his updated on facebook and seeing what he was up to. Sending you extra love and peace as you navigate your grief.
