Arthur encouraged me to join, but not in the usual salesman like way we often experience, but in his quiet and generous way that we knew him for in his every day life.

You don’t often see affection expressed for a member at the meetings of a club/society, but Arthur did receive it regularly and openly.

Astronomy is poorer for it’s loss of such an enthusiastic person as Arthur, but it has gained over the years from dedication, and generosity.

Rest in Peace.
