Tommy was born on September 27, 1969 and went home to be with the Lord January 5, 2021 in Monroe, Louisiana.

To know him was to love him.  He had a bigger than life personality and never met a stranger. He was a well-known body man in the area, but more than that, he was an amazing family man.  You did not have to be blood to be his family, either.  He loved with everything he had and would do anything for anyone.  He loved to fish, hunt and build and collect guns.

Family was everything to him and he is survived by his wife of 32 years, Tammy Arnold; four children, John Arnold and wife Keisha, Heather Arnold, Sara Arnold and Tanya Arnold.  He was “Papaw” to 11 grandchildren, Braden, Thomas, Samantha, Madison, Kaleb, Hadley, Maddie, Freddy, Baylee, Khloe, Rhylee and many others along the way; mother, Veronica Williams; sister, Jennifer Martinez; nieces, nephews and many other cherished family and friends.

Pallbearers will be Casey Peters, Cody Williams, Christopher Martinez, Curtis Heckard, Michael Duncan and Chris Tillman.
