Arnold will always hold a special place in my heart. I remember to this day how you and Violet welcome me to the family. I remember going for a ride when I was dating uncle Ernie the love of my life as we listen to the 50´s songs. I was new in town since I came for a short vacation from chihuahua Mexico and ended up spending my whole life in Colorado, happily married to Ernie Abachiche. Now that you are in heaven tell the love of my life that I miss him dearly but will reunite with him someday. My beautiful Violet and Girls God will be with you during this trying times.

I am sorry to learn of Arnold's passing. My heartfelt condolences to Violet, Shalene, Heather, Kele and Gabriella. I worked with Arnold at the FLC Police Dept for a number of years. Chief took his job seriously but was never far from cracking a joke! He laughed about being outnumbered by his "girls," and he loved them more than anything. One of my favorite jobs because of him...diplomatic, kind, professional, funny. May you rest in peace, Arnold.

Arnold and I met as members of The International Association of Campus Law Enforcement Administrators. We looked forward to seeing each other and our children each year at annual conferences. We both became President of the Association. Our children still stay in touch with each other. Arnold was an honorable man, devoted to his profession, and committed to treating people with care. My prayers go out to his family. May God be with you in your time of grief.
