I knew Arthur from the YMCA. He was so fun to talk to. He loved the ladies and loved relaxing in the therapy pool and hot tub. He always shared his struggles with everyday life and made a lot of people smile. I always called him King Arthur! He played golf with a friend of mine a few times and with the Reverend of a Church in Lasalle. He will be missed, I looked forward to hearing his stories, even the unbelievable ones!
