I can't believe that it has been four years since we lost you. Your jokes and laughter reminds me of our weekend marriage at the Temple. No one can run that grill like you and no one has since you've been gone. That's what I cherish the most, our weekends of grilling, come rain or shine. Love eternally, Worthy Matron Sabrina M. Brown, Ruth Chapter #2

To the Arrington Family, Earth has no sorrow that Heaven can't heal.
I'm truly and ever grateful in knowing this sweet Spirit, Kind and Gentle Giant! He was not just a Masonic Brother, but he was a Big brother, confidant and friend. We worked every Saturday last year on the Scholarship Fund Raiser for our Grand Lodge and those were some of the best times that I had. Everyone that came by, always thought that we were actually husband and wife, because we often argued about how things should be done, and most often, it went your way. You would sing, cook, laugh, tell jokes and ask me to always bring you Krispy Kreme donuts. Most times, you would take a nap in that recliner chair and start snoring, really loud! We would drive each other crazy and then, when Renee was added to the mix, oh boy! So, then it became two against one and you would often say that you didn't need two wives for the day and we had to choose who was going to be the wife and who was going to be the helper? You would be mad and leave us alone, because you got two wives and two helpers! Every weekend, was a Blessed weekend, because every person that interacted with you, always came back the next week looking for your special ribs, chicken, green beans and most definitely that smile that Lights up any gloomy day. To my cookout husband, take your rest, because God knew what was best. You have worked long and hard in the vineyard and your mighty works have spoken for you by the number of people you have touched. I'm going to miss you so much and thank you for teaching me how to cook fish, I still have not learned how to make pancakes yet, but I will keep trying. I thank God that you were able to receive your flowers of Dedication, Loyalty and Servitude from the Grand Lodge. You were the Be All, Know All, to us and there will never be Another one like you Arrington. It is with a very heavy heart, and tears flowing that I say FAREWELL MY BROTHER.

We were greatly saddened to hear of Mr. Arrington's passing and we are sorry for your loss. Mr. Arrington performed outstanding contracting work on some condos in McLean Gardens for us, including jobs that no one else would tackle. He was a pleasure to work with and will be greatly missed.
