Dear Betty,
I was saddened and shocked when I read about Arnie. I considered some of the best years of my life was those years when you, Arnie and myself spent those long breakfasts together in Brewerton at the dinner. I
God was good to me to have you & Arnie introduced into my life. I know it will be difficult for you for a while, but the memories of Arnir, the support of you grls along with Ryan and Andrew will help you. y
You will be in my prayers. If I can help call me 299-5607.

Pat,
I did not meet your father, but if you are anything like him he had to be quite a dad. Your dad, I'm sure was honored to have such a wonderful family. I will keep your family in my prayers. I am so sorry of your loss.

God Bless you and your family at this time of grieving.

I cannot think of Arnie without Betty, any more than I could think of, George without Gracie, They were a team like no other team I have ever known. I so admired their love for each other, their playfulness and obvious devotion
What a rare gift.
One of the last times I saw Arnie he told me a story about their 63rd anniversary.
He woke up early; Betty was still sleeping so he went to Fratelli's to have breakfast. He brought back his left over toast in a to go box, he smiled shrugged his shoulder and said it was GREAT TOAST !!. He took the box back to camp, and Betty was just getting up. Arnie said I gave her the toast and said Happy Anniversary Betty.
63 years we have been married, Arnie smiled that impish smile and said Betty really liked that toast

Arnie was a remarkable man who loved his family; worked hard, he found joy in fixing things, always lent a hand to help, and was good to everyone he ever met
If the World were filled with more men like Arnold Armani
Oh what a wonderful place this would be. Goodbye dear friend, Your stories will live forever in our hearts.

I never met Mr Armani, but he leaves behind a beautiful legacy in his daughter, whom I do know, and love very dearly. Patti, I feel like I knew him from all the great stories you've shared over the years. The love and admiration you had for your dad was always very apparent. He raised a beautiful, funny, genuine daughter, that I am so blessed to call friend. My heart breaks for you and your family, but I know the bond and love you all shared while he was here will live on through memories, and in your hearts. I love you. God Bless you all at this very sad time. Lorraine Frontale (Syracuse,NY)

I last saw Arnie at the diner in Brewerton just a couple of weeks ago. What a great guy. He and Betty were regulars there; the survivors of the 'round table' are fewer again.

I won't attend calling hours since I have 'shingles' which can be a source of chicken pox. I truly regret not being there. Betty, I hope to see you in Brewerton sometime. My thoughts are with you, and my prayers are with Arnie.
