    He was so gracious to me when I had to stay in the house during flooding. I wish him peace.
    My love to Sue and the kids.

    I will miss Bill’s wit and smile. I know he served his country in the Vietnam War. Bill was proud of his service. Blessings to Sue and family who knew him well‼️ F B I

    I am going to miss Bills big beautiful smile , hearty laugh , attitude about life and the best ribs I have ever eaten!!
    His great sense of humor lasted even to his self penned obit with his reference to the “FBI”????! Sad as losing him is I am glad he’s not suffering anymore and I hope Sue & their families sadness is soon replaced with great memories of a great guy… Rest In Peace Bill

    We were lucky to have Bill in our family. Thank you, Sue, for bringing him into the fold, or, would “subjecting him to the Arnold family” be more accurate? I wonder. Never the loudest one in the crowd, Bill held his own with his wry wit, incredible sports knowledge, and yes…his BBQ. He coined the phrase “FBI” (ask Sue), and it was a mantle he and the other FBIs wore proudly. We’ll miss you. Till we meet again.
