I’m so sorry. Arlan was a top notch kind of guy with a wonderful sense of humor. In many of our chats through the years, he made it clear how much he loved his family. May peace be with all of you.
Much love to his family & all my cousins during this time… Uncle Arlan was a kind & gentle man. He will be missed. I’m sorry that I can’t be there to see you all and to give hugs, just know I’m thinking of you. You are in my thoughts & prayers.
Gil, I send my deepest sympathy to you and your family. You all will be in my prayers.
