You will be missed Arthur, you were a big part of our lives as we grew up in the Neighborhood. Arthur had a great sense of humor and was playful with all of us kids on the block. See you in Heaven some day, for now say Hi to Dad for me.

Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you. Uncle Arthur will be remembered as a man with a big smile and big laugh. He made people laugh. He was a good man with a big heart. He is now in a better place as his brothers would always say, and now he is with them.
God Bless you all.
