I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

We will miss Arne and his amazing stories and antedotes. They should be recorded and preserved for future generations.

Our deepest sympathies to the family of Brother Arne Tenhula for their loss. May you have Faith and confidence, that although the form you knew and loved has been removed from your sight, He and Grace realize they are and always have been at-one with God, the Father/Mother of us all.

My sincerest sympathy to the entire family on the loss of Captain Tenhula. He was a friend of my dad - Capt. Edward J. Scott and was frequently mentioned in his conversations. Capt. Tenhula was one of the very few remaining Great Lakes captains who watched the evolution of the ore boats from what they once were to what they are now. He, and the men like him, helped make this evolution possible. They were great men.
