I worked for/with Pete from September 2000 to April 2002. It was a short time in which I learned a great deal, became involved in TAPS as a newly licensed surveyor, and started the portion of my career as a licensed surveyor. He was a good man.
Charles ÛÏPeteÛ William Arney
Passed away January 2, 2017. He was born in Morgantown, North Carolina on November 1, 1946. Pete was 70 years old and had been sick for several years. He joined the military at 19 years old and served his country proudly and honorably in Vietnam. Pete was lucky enough to meet and marry his soulmate Sandy, they were married for 43 years. Pete did not want a funeral and Sandy respected his wishes. Many surveyorÛªs count Pete as a mentor and teacher. He spoke his mind and if you wanted to know the truth the person to ask was Pete.
We will be celebrating Pete's life on January 12, 2017 at 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm with a wake at TonyÛªs Trophy Room (used to be the Abblebee's Restaurant) in Collierville, Tn. The address is:
929 W Poplar Ave
Collierville, TN 38017
We invite you to join us to swap stories, have a few drinks and/or eat and to honor PeteÛªs life.
