Please accept our sympathies on the death of Al Arno. As kids, we lived on the same block in North Saint Louis. I did not realize at the time that those were good years. We all played together, our parents knew each other and life was good. May God grant you all a grief that is one of love, peace, and comfort. Al was a GREAT guy.
