<div itemprop="description">It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Arnold Greschner on July 29, 2024. At the age of eighty-six, Arnold passed away peacefully at the Lakeshore Hospital with his family by his bedside. <br> <br>Arnold will be deeply missed by his daughters Karen (Steve), Carol (Steven) & Christine (Marcus), his grandchildren Ellen, Jesse, Tyler & Amy, and his great granddaughter Willow. <br> <br>Arnold was married to his beloved wife and partner, Betty, for thirty-six years. After Betty passed away in 1999, he developed a deeper relationship with his girls. He was affectionately called “Papa” by all his grandchildren. <br> <br>Arnold worked at Bell Canada for thirty-three years and had the pleasure of taking early retirement at the age of fifty-two. Arnold fully enjoyed his retirement and was able to pursue the activities that he loved most: bowling, golf, stamp & coin collecting, and cheering on his favorite Montreal sport teams. <br>He loved to tell and hear a good joke, offer guidance on finances and sports, and was always competitive in every game he played. <br> <br>As Arnold often said, “I have lived a good life.” <br> <br>Thank you to the staff at the Lakeshore Hospital for taking care of him in his final days. <br> <br>In honor of his memory, a donation can be made to the Canadian Cancer Society. <br> <br>A Celebration of Life will be held for Arnold at the Rideau Funeral Home (4275 Sources Blvd, Dollard-Des Ormeaux.) on September 8th, 2024, between 2 and 4 pm. <br></div>
