A belief in the power of love always seemed to be the fuel for everything that Uncle Arthur did. The radiant smile with which he would greet you always made you feel recognized, valued and confident, whatever your age. Memories of him in the big house on Stinson Boulevard, at Sugar Lake and at family gatherings, especially those in recent years centering around Cousin Kathleen Kuhlmann's concerts, will always be fortifying. He seemed to bring out the best in people because he respected them....

To those who knew Dad: He loved God, Mom, life, us( his children) and work. His example is there for us to use and pass on as did he with his father's life and memory.

Dear Quiggle family, I remember Dr. Quiggle very well. He taught Sunday School at Shiloh Bethany Presbyterian Church. I was fortunate enough to be part of his class. Dr. Quiggle was an excellent teacher and a kind and caring man. Even though I haven't seen him in nearly 30 plus years, I would think of him often and remember what a wonderful person he was...my condolences to the entire Quiggle family on your loss. --Denise (Ferguson) Redgate
