Arvon was one of a kind and every thought of him makes me smile. My heart goes out to your whole family. He is not gone- he just got transferred. We’ll all be together again.

Dear Christine and family,
I was heartbroken to hear of Arvon’s passing. Please accept my deepest condolences during this incredibly difficult time.
Arvon was such a special person—kind, gentle, and full of a good heart. When I had the privilege of caring for him as a home health nurse, I quickly grew to love you both, and those feelings have remained with me all these years. Although time and circumstances have kept us apart, the bond we shared never diminished. My children and I will always hold Arvon’s memory close in our hearts, and we will miss him terribly.
In our faith, we are reminded that families are eternal and that loved ones are never truly gone—they are simply waiting for us in God’s time. I pray that you find comfort in this promise and in the love and support of those around you.
Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. If there is anything I can do to support you during this time, do not hesitate to reach out.
With heartfelt sympathy,
Dayna, Beck & Madison
