My thoughts and prayers to all the family. Cousin Arnie was a great and wonderful person. I have so many childhood memories of him. He always had a smile on his face when he saw you coming. As adults we went our separate ways but I thought of him quite often. It is so very hard when we lose one of our loved one\'s but we will see him again in that glorious and wonderful place. God bless you all.....
