I am so sorry to hear this. Arnold was my first boss at Philip Morris and a good man. May the good memories of his life be a comfort to the family.

Margeret, sorry to learn of Arnold's passing. I enjoyed the many years of working with him in IT at Philip Morris USA. He was a good friend and was always kind to me and June. I know this is a trying time for you and family. Just remember all the precious times you shared with Arnold. RIP Arnold.
