Comments: The youthful Pres. Arnold was only 10 - 15 years older than the rest of us Missionaries. Dedicated, dynamic, energetic and full of the spirit...he was a joy to serve under. Very well loved by all he'll be missed as he passed away 11 Feb 99.
Details on his death are that he had spent the night before with his mother, who is quite frail. He went home and started up the snowblower to clear off the driveway before he went to work. He made a few passes with the snowblower, and Sister Arnold heard the snowblower all of a sudden stop. When she looked outside he had fallen back on the driveway. His hat and glasses had come off, and there was no pulse nor movement. He had been having some heart arrhythmia and was scheduled to go to the doctor later in the day. He obviously went fast and had no or very little pain. He always seemed so young. Just 58 years old.
