Clyde Raymond Arndt passed away at 6:59 p.m. on Monday, January 21, 2008 at the Hannibal Regional Hospital. Raymond spent his childhood years in Hannibal where he attended and graduated from the Hannibal School District. He often told the story of being baptized three times; once in a creek, then at the Methodist Church in Hannibal and a final time at the Farber Christian Church, where he served as an elder. Raymond was a World War II veteran and worked in various occupations throughout his life. He was employed by NARCO Refractories in Farber for 32 years prior to his retirement.

After retirement, Raymond and Louise moved to their farm south of Hunnewell where he spent 20 years enjoying his favorite hobbies of hunting and fishing. His spare time was spent at a camp on the Mississippi River where he was a commercial and recreational fisherman. Raymond enjoyed life to the fullest and was a kid at heart.
