Arnold Hale, age 72, of Kendallville, passed away Wednesday, January 4, 2023 at Parkview Noble Hospital in Kendallville. Mr. Hale was born in Hippo, Kentucky to the late Winfield and Stella (Bradley) Hale. Arnold was always a hard worker and made sure he provided for his family. He never turned down overtime at Kendallville Foundry where he was employed for 20 years until he became disabled and could not work. Arnold loved to fish, and he was also an avid hunter. He was always ready to go when season was in, especially deer season. But what Arnold loved the most was his family…his daughters and grandchildren. They were his pride and joy and they loved him the same. Arnold was deeply loved and will be greatly missed and never forgotten.
