I feel fortunate I got to know Arthur at Brighton Gardens. He ate at the same table as my husband, and I joined them for dinner often. He was always a delight. He would always greet me with a friendly smile & hand shake, saying "Hello there, kid. How you doing?" We miss him. I trust you know how happy & comfortable he was at Brighton Gardens. Yes, he was a delight & we miss him.
