Uncle A will be missed. He gave great advice when asked . My thoughts to all of the Steadham family.
So sorry to hear that Mr Arnold passed away. He was a good man with a heart of gold. . He was my parents neighbor for many years, and was always around for them. There wasn’t anything they wouldn’t do for each other. I’ll always remember Mr Arnold for his beautiful garden and his kind and gentle ways. Rest in peace Mr Arnold !
