This is from the Saverio and Santina family – they live in Borgo Vallino just outside Antrodoco, Italy.

We are all very sorry for the death of Uncle Arnold. Rosangela and I remember with pleasure and affection. I also broke the news to Santina and Saverio and also they are very saddened.

Let me have more news soon, even on you.

I hug you

Dear Dan, Heather and Manzara family. Our deepest regrets and condolences on hearing of the passing of your father Dan – our heartfelt thoughts and wishes are with you all.

My heartfelt condolences to the Manzara family.

I owe my career to Arnold. He was not only my boss when I first joined Texaco but he became my friend as well. Sadly as time passed we lost touch. I will remember him as a genuinely friendly, funny and caring man.

Deepest Sympathies

My deepest sympathy for the loss of a genuinely caring, funny and all around good man. Arnold gave me my start in the Oil patch working with him at Texaco and then Esso and as my brother stated earlier, I too owe my career to “The Little General”. He always managed to make the work day fun. He had great sense of humour that will be missed. I will always be grateful to Arnold for all that he taught me through the years working with him. He was a good man and a good friend and he’ll be missed. Deepest Sympathies.

Dear Danny, Heather and family,

Please accept our sincere condolences on the passing of your dear father. Take care of yourselves during this difficult transition. May the love of family and friends, and the many wonderful memories you have of your dad, sustain you in the time ahead.

Love,

-Sandy and Rick

My condolences to the Manzara family;

I worked with Arnold at Texaco Exploration from 1959 to 1965. As a fellow draftsperson starting my career, I remember Arnold as being a consistently friendly, sincere person; always willing to provide advise and encouragement.

My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

My thoughts & prayers go out to the entire family.

To my very Dear Dad,

I cannot say enough thanks to you, for all your love, kindness and support; especially during the difficult times of my life, the passing of my father, my babies Brian and Gary. It was hard to see you being ill and it was even harder to see you leave, we will always love you and miss you. It comforts me when I know you are now reunited with Mom, Kenny and other loved ones.

One day we will meet again.

Lots of love XOXOXO

-Mabel, Floyd, Jason and Jonathon

I miss you so much already, grandpa:) Forever in my heart, and never forgotten❤️

My family and I are saddened to learn of Uncle Arnold’s passing. Our thoughts are with you during this sad time. I will always remember Uncle Arnold fondly and have wonderful memories of the many times spent with him and you all during the younger years. He leaves behind a wonderful family and I know you will all be a great source of comfort and support to one another.
