I send my thoughts and prayers to the Arnold family. Dudley is and always will be a great man. I remember working with him @ Larco Ind. He cut large beams, while I cut the smaller pieces. He brought me to central mall after work so I could catch the bus. We would listen to his cassette tapes of oldies music. Many songs remind me of him and one of them is King of the Road. God Bless his soul, and I can't wait to see him again when the Lord calls me. I see him and my Grandfather sitting and talking in Heaven.
