So sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in the
words spoken at Revelation 21:3,4 "(3) With that I heard
a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God
is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they
will be his people. And God himself will be with them.
(4 ) And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and
death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry
nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”

Randy, Ed, Darrell and all the Jones family. I am thinking of all of you during this difficult time. Arlon was a good person and always meant a lot to me. I am sorry I can't be with you today but
I know you will understand.

He is in a much better place today and free of all pain and I know
he is smiling and talking to loved ones who have gone on before.

Rest in peace my friend..

I am so sorry to hear about Mr. Arlon. I thought a great deal of him and enjoyed visiting with him when he use to farm. I took care of his farming interest in our office, Farm Service Agency. He was a wonderful person and will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.
