Mildred Arnold Obituary
Mildred was born in Iva, Anderson County, South Carolina. Daughter to the late John W. and Evie Brewster Cross, Mildred is survived by her nephew Edwin Thurmon "Cross" Longo and niece Mona "Burney" Black. Mildred was like a mother to both.
Mildred moved to Angie Drive, Anderson, South Carolina in the late 1970's where she later met Owen F. Arnold and began their life together in the 1990's. Mildred had shared friendships and neighbors and was loved by all. A devout Christian, she enjoyed her time as a member of the Jimmy Swaggart Ministries where she received her spiritual guidance every Sunday and Wednesday on SBN TV. Nothing brightened her day more and filled her with excitement as she looked forward to her time with God. Mildred will be missed by so many, and her good deeds and charities will not be forgotten, as she privately served so many.
The family will receive friends on Saturday, October 12, 2024, from 11:00 am until 12:45 pm at The McDougald Funeral Home. The funeral service will begin at 1:00 pm in the Chapel with Dr. Doug Ferguson officiating. Burial will follow at Starr Baptist Church Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Hospice of the Upstate, 1835 Rogers Rd., Anderson, SC 29621.

My family and I are going to miss Mildred so much! She was a good Christian lady and was always helping others! When we would come to S.C. we would always look her up and go and visit. When I went through a flood she sent me clothes to help me out. She was very special to me and my family! I never met her niece or nephew, but I did want to tell them how sorry we are about Mildred! May God give you peace and comfort knowing that Mildred is with him! She has won! She has the victory!

This really breaks my heart. I just saw Mrs. Arnold in Ingles grocery store a few weeks ago. We hugged tightly as we talked about how we missed one another. She had dinner delivered to my home when she found out I had surgery and would be out of work for a period of time. She would bring breakfast to me and other CNA's at Richard Campbell Veterans Nursing Home when her late husband resided there. She was some kind of a special lady. I had a special greeting for her when we would meet "Hello Beautiful." She was beautiful inside out. She will be missed. RIP.
