A country legend died today just days short of his 90th birthday. He is more of my generation, but he was unfailingly kind, a real gentleman, he was married to one woman for a lifetime. Although, while he was still quite popular his wife was middle aged, with middle-aged spread, with grey hair and yet he still loved her deeply and I admired him as much for that as well as his music.

As I get older more of my family members and friends pass away and more of the people I admired, like Arnold, pass away and are not even known by most of the people alive today. That’s too bad, Arnold was worth knowing.
