I am so saddened over hearing about the loss of this wonderful man who was like a second father to me in my younger years. Oh, the memories I have of all the fun times spent with this wonderful family and mine! From the fun times just spent visiting, the vacation I took with ya'll to Mountain Home and the artifact collections that you and my parents collected through the years. Those are the memories that I will treasure in my heart always. God has welcomed an angel with golden wings. I love you all! Stacey (Costen) Crumpler

Arthur was a dear friend, we worked to gather at DuPont until he moved to the welding shop. He was always willing to help when asked, did welding on the Kiddie Ferris Wheel the Orange Lions club owns. Arthur was a natural artist, in painting and wood carving anything to keep his Indian heritage alive. Arthur will be missed by all.

I have so many memories in my life that include Uncle Arthur... Although I called him uncle, he was a Grandpa in my heart. Sending prayers and hugs to Net Net, Michael and Tony.
