My Dear Friend    

Arley, do you remember French Class? And do you remember the white rose corsage that you pinned on me for the Senior Prom? I haven't forgotten, and wherever you are, may the Great Goddess keep you safe. I love you always.~Rosamund Ball

Remembering a friend

I went to Marshall University and knew Arley for about 4 months. He was a dedicated Marine and was well liked by all who knew him. He has been missed.

He always made me laugh

Arly and I loved to pal around at Marshall; he really wanted to go, and I really didn't want him to.~Dr. Joyce Shewey Houchins
