Larry Kevin Arnold

Larry Kevin Arnold, age 48, of Seton Square, Dover, and formerly of New Philadelphia, entered his heavenly reward late Wednesday afternoon, April 8, 2009, from Aultman Hospital, following a very sudden illness. Born at Columbus, May 31, 1960, Larry was the pride and joy of his parents; Larry and Carolyn Reaves Arnold, who reside at New Philadelphia. Best known as Kevin to his family and friends, he was a member of the B.P.O. Elks Lodge # 1555 at Newcomerstown, Sacred Heart Catholic Church at New Philadelphia, and the Tuscarawas County YMCA. He was a former member of the Newcomerstown Lions Club, the Knights of Columbus. As a resident at Seton Square, Kevin enjoyed many of the activities there, including the potluck dinners and Bingo. He was involved in the Twinges Classes at the YMCA, which greatly reduced the pain associated with his arthritis. Kevin was an avid fan of the Ohio State Buckeyes on Saturday’s and the Cleveland Browns on Sunday’s. Kevin will be remembered for his appreciation of the simple things in life. His friends and fellow residents at Seton Square will miss the joy he brought to their lives. In addition to his parents, who reside at New Philadelphia, Kevin is survived by his special friends Ronnie and Bonnie Austin, of New Philadelphia, his uncle; Jimmy Strange and Jimmy’s companion Ethel Maxwell of Harrisville, Pennsylvania. An aunt; Sharlene (husband Paul) Rawn of Floyds Knobs, Indiana, numerous cousins and extended family, also survive. Friends are invited to call Monday, April 13, from 4PM â?? 7PM in the Linn-Hert-Geib Funeral Home & Crematory at New Philadelphia where Christian Wake Services will commence at 6:45 PM.
