TRIBUTE
Ian Arnold

Tribute

Arnold In a tribute to the late Ian Arnold (PJ, 23 November 2002, p762), LILLIAN KLINKEN writes:

I first met Ian Arnold in 1967 when we were fellow students at Heriot-Watt University. My lasting memory will be of his forthright, honest character. He will be remembered by all in our year for his great sense of fun — he brightened up our days with his sunny disposition.

After qualifying in 1972, Ian completed a year's Voluntary Services Overseas in Jamaica during which time he met his beloved Jenny. He went on to work in the employ of various oil companies in Grand Cayman, in Russia and in the Middle East. His work literally took him to the four corners of the earth. At the time of his death he was superintendent of Petmar, the marine petroleum company.

Ian touched the lives of all who knew him. He was a special human being who will be greatly missed, not the least for his wonderful sense of humour.

In his private life Ian was a devoted husband and father. He is survived by Jenny and their two children, Karin and Michael.
