Arnold was predeceased by one son, Daniel Kinney, two brothers; James Kinney and Kenneth Kinney in infancy, two sisters; Amelia McKinney and Phyllis Buchanan and by two nieces, Hughene and Marie.

After retiring from employment in Massachusetts, Arnold and Bunny moved back to New Brunswick. Arnold was an avid outdoorsman who enjoyed "Good Fishing" at Second Falls. He liked to keep busy with his hands, making bird houses and other trinkets or just keeping busying around the yard. One of Arnold's favourite pastimes was being with his family and friends and enjoying their company.

As keeping with Arnold’s wishes there will be no visitation. A service will be held from the Gary E. Waycott Memorial Chapel from the St. George Funeral Home & Crematorium (755-3533) 26 Portage Street, St. George NB on Saturday at 2:00 pm with Pastor David Haddon officiating. In Arnold’s memory, donations to a charity of the donor’s choice would be appreciated by the family.
