    Dear Mary, Steve and Cindy, I am so sorry to learn of Arthur's death. He was one of the first people of Hanover we met when we came here in 1960. He was a gentleman, a friend and a fine electrician. It was always a pleasure to have Arthur in our home. And, of course, we became neighbors some years later. May he rest in peace in the great workshop in the sky and may you folks find strength and consolaion in knowing that Dad has so many praying for you at this time. Sincere Condolences, Walt Sweeney
