Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryARNOLD ANDREW LARSON It is with great sadness we announce the sudden passing of Arnold Andrew Larson on March 20, 2015 at the Health Sciences Centre due to his declining health. Arnold is survived by his best friend, the love of his life, his loving wife Ann of 57 years; sons Doug (Linda), Larry (Karen) and Andy (Cheryl); grandchildren Ainslea (Alan), April, Jamie, Brittany (Colin), Jesse, Cody and Lacie; great-grandsons Hunter, Treyton, Riley and Memphis. He is also survived by his sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law and many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents Andrew and Gunhild; his sister Ruth (Jack) and his brother Marvin; father and mother-in-law Albert and Delia Hanslip along with sisters and brothers-in-law and other family members. Arnold was born in Eriksdale on February 3, 1937. At a young age Arnold moved to Winnipeg and was employed as a butcher for 43 years at Best Brand Meats. Upon retiring he moved back to Eriksdale where he loved his home and the country air. Arnold was a very kind and loving person. His boys will remember him as a great hockey dad. His great sense of humour and his ability to make anyone laugh will be cherished by all who knew him. Arnold and Ann both had a wonderful love for music and it was not uncommon for them to often play and sing together while at home. They played in a band together called the Eriksdale Jammers that entertained many at events over the years. Arnold loved to listen to his fiddle tunes and would often play along. In keeping with Arnold's wishes, cremation has taken place and a memorial luncheon honoring his life will be held between 2:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. on Saturday, March 28, 2015 at the Eriksdale Recreation Centre with Pastor Bill Watson leading. Many thanks to the doctors, nurses and staff at the Eriksdale, Ashern, Selkirk and Grace Hospitals, the Health Sciences Centre and to the wonderful and caring Paramedics which made Arnold so comfortable. Thank you dad for all your love and big warm hugs. We will miss you so much - Your Loving Family. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Arnold's memory to the E.M.

Worked with Arnie for close to 20 years, have many good memories of work days at his home in city, home in Ericksdale and at some of his kids homes. Over the years we always tried to get together whenever he came into town, the best time was when I was talking to Arnie on phone when our boss Marshal paged me to ask why Arnie hadn't been emptying his garbage in his office so I transferred Arnie to his phone so Arnie could remind him he retired 6 months earlier. We all still laugh at that call. Rest Arnie we'll miss you. John Strong and John Kunicki - Posted by: john strong (friend) on: Mar 24, 2015

Andy and family - we were so sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. We know how important your parents are to you. The past while has presented its share of trying times and you did what you could to help make things comfortable for your Dad and Mom. Take comfort in knowing that his pain is now gone and that he will be watching over you. We may lose those that we love in the physical world but they will be forever cherished in our memories and always hold a dear place in our hearts. May God grant your Dad peace and a place to rest at his table. - Posted by: Peter Roth (Friend) on: Mar 24, 2015
