We met the Arnolds when our oldest son married their daughter, Jenny, 17 years ago. Adrian from the first meeting was always a true gentleman. Standing when a female came back to a table and holding doors open for them. You just don't see that courtliness any longer. Such a kind, calm and gentle soul. Never goodbye, only so long, friend

I remember when Adrian and his staff joined ABKJ. I recall his kind and gentle nature. He was a joy to work with.

Thank you Adrian for giving me my first engineering job out of college and allowing me the opportunity to be part of the Arnold Arnold & Associates family. You were a great mentor and teacher - you helped me establish a strong foundation for advancing my career.
I remember my first assignment - designing by hand calculations a simple span, prestressed concrete deck bulb tee girder bridge. I prepared the calcs on legal size grid paper. After that assignment you allowed me to use WSDOT's prestressed girder design program.
You will be truly missed but not forgotten.
