My condolences to Arthur’s family. Arthur was a good friend during my many years in the Goderich Little Theater. I’m so very sad to learn of his passing. R.I.P. dear Arthur.

Condolence from Ralph and Smith on October 31st, 2022 10:30 PM

We are so sorry to learn of Arthur’s passing. He was a faithful member of Probus and for many years was able to say he had never missed a meeting. He brought his love of music and his talent on the piano to many people. Before he became a resident of Goderich Place, he would come and entertain here. Arthur was also a fund of knowledge on local history and had a remarkable memory for names and events. When we discovered that both Arthur and I had attended Tecumseh Public School in London, we enjoyed a common bond. My husband Ralph and I extend our condolences to his relatives. Ralph and Eleanor Smith

Arthur was our neighbour for many years before he moved into his apartment on Waterloo Street, then to Goderich Place and lastly to Huronview. He was a unique and engaging individual who will be missed in the Goderich community. Arthur was always a gentleman. We send our sincerest condolences to his extended family as they mourn his loss.

Condolence from Murray and Wanda Keith on November 1st, 2022 10:10 PM

Arthur was always such a pleasant gentleman. His wonderful expression of music on the piano brought great joy to all who heard him play.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Arthur’s family.

Condolence from Andre and Bonnie De Decker on November 3rd, 2022 12:19 AM

We want to extend our sincere sympathy to Arthur’s family. Since Bonnie worked in the Lakeview Restaurant in the late 50’s
and early 60’s, we have kept in touch each year at Christmas time. Since the beginning of Covid, we haven’t been in Goderich, but Bonnie’s sister, Ruth Stauttener, has kept us informed about Arthur. Last night she let us know that he had passed away. We cherished his friendship. Until we meet again, rest in peace, Arthur.

I have known Arthur for many years.
Lots of good memories.
I always enjoyed his Christmas Letters.
He wrote about playing the piano for many different groups.
You could just tell how much pleasure he got from sharing his talent.
He always had family stories to tell too.
Deepest sympathy to the family.

My deepest sympathies to the family..I knew Arthur for many years beginning in Clinton in 1966 at our Airforce Drama Club called Pegasus Players. He and I were in Arsenic and Old Lace together. We then appeared in Blythe Spirit in Goderich as “husband and wife”. Arthur’s mother kindly had my Aunt and her son over for tea , when they visited from England.
Then the airforce took us away and we didn’t return until 1974 to live in Goderich and the first play I performed in , in 1976 was Arsenic and Old Lace again with Arthur. We were 27 years old in Clinton and our friendship lasted many years. He will be missed.
