Arnie was a great guy. If he was your friend, he was a genuine friend who would give you the shirt off his back. The ole cowboy will surely be missed. He taught my son good work ethics which he continues to have to be successful. Arnie's famous quote 'Do it right the first time!. He lived by this. May God Bless
