Tommy L. Arnold was born to Arine and Lucian Arnold Jr. on August 5, 1947. Death came quietly and closed Tommy’s eyes at North Mississippi Medical Center on February 22, 2018, after a brief illness. Tommy grew up in Nettleton, MS and attended Sims High School. He was a member of Springhill M.B. Church, where he remained until death. He was retired after being employed many years at Midsouth Packers as a plant manager. He also worked at Eljers and Allan White. Tommy enjoyed spending time with his family and friends. He loved teaching his son and grandchildren tricks of the cards. He was an avid gardener and enjoyed sharing his harvest with the community. He enjoyed fishing, watching television (Westerns and Andy Griffith), and quiet time alone on his front porch. Tommy was preceded in death by his parents, Arine and Lucian Arnold; two brothers, Emmit Arnold and Leroy Arnold; one daughter, Andrea Arnold; and a brother in-law, Adolphus Wren. Tommy will be missed. He leaves behind loving memories for his family to cherish for the years to come.
