Hello, I recently purchased a 1968-69 Revolver and inscribed inside of the factory box is a message from Priscilla to Bob in 1969 on their 4th anniversary. I am seeking to find this legacy and the internet lead me here.

I found out too late to honor you by attending your memorial. You were the best boss ever and taught me so many things that I have applied throughout my life. You even taught me how to make pancakes that you made once for the Board at Wiregrass Mental Health! You inspired me and always encouraged me to do my best. You were loved by many and will be missed.

In life, there are those rare few souls with whom you cross paths and make such an lasting impact on your life causing them to remain forever in your thoughts and memories! Dr. McArthur was definitely one of those special and kind souls that I had the privilege of being taught and advised by in the Counseling graduate program at Troy University. Even after graduating and having been working in my field for an extended period of time, he would take time to contact me about professional...

I had the pleasure of serving on the SE Child Advocacy Center Board of Directors with Dr. McArthur. I never saw him without a smile on his face or a word of encouragement. What a wonderful Christian man!

Years after graduating from his program at TSUD, I sought Dr. McArthur´s advice on preparing for an important interview. His counsel was so spot-on, I followed it to the letter and responded to anticipated questions with the words and tone he had suggested with great confidence.

Great man who will be greatly missed. My favorite professor and a good mentor. He was always there, ready to lend sound advice and sound counsel, even years after I graduated. Rest in peace Dr. McArthur.

Dr. McArthur was my advisor and instructor for my graduate program at Troy University, Dothan. He was the most incredible person that I have ever met. He had a passion for his work and teaching those who were ready to learn. He helped instill in me a confidence in my profession that I had never experienced before. He produced some of the finest graduates from Troy University. I have had the pleasure of remaining in contact with many of his former students and, all those that I know, have...

Dr. McArthur was one of my grad professors at Troy Dothan and was very instrumental in me getting my LPC. I now work at Troy Dothan. I saw him at an event here on campus last year and am so glad I did. He was a great man! Praying for his family!
