Gary Franklin
Arnold
Nov 22, 1955 — Sep 15, 2025
Lebanon
Mr. Gary Franklin Arnold, 69, of Lebanon, passed away peacefully on Monday, September 15, 2025, at home surrounded by his loving family. He was born November 22, 1955, in Greencastle, a son of the late James and Mary (Kite) Arnold.
Gary graduated from Granville Wells High School with the class of 1974 and went on to work as a certified electrician. Outside of work, he found joy in life's simple pleasures—fishing, watching NASCAR, and building and flying remote model airplanes. Among his greatest joys was the companionship of his beloved dog, Luna.
Survivors include his daughter, Jennifer Arnold; grandchildren, Brittany Arnold and Ryan Dover; and sisters, Patricia Tanselle and Jackie (Chris) Faust. He was preceded in death by his grandchild, Jamie Dover, as well as his brothers, Roger Arnold and Jimmy Arnold, and brother-in-law, Merlin Tanselle.
