Obituary

Everything that happens in this world occurs at the time of God's choosing:

A Time to be Born:
Arnold Sr and the late Mattie Ruth Joachim shared with the world a handsome, bouncing baby boy born on February 10, 1978, in Pahokee, FL. As one of ten siblings, he was the youngest son of the family. Arnold's journey from childhood to young adulthood was filled with life's experiences that shaped his remarkable personality.

A Time to Live:
Arnold attended the public schools in Palm Beach County, graduating from Glades Central Community High School in 1997. He was a standout defensive player, wearing number 53. Due to his size and athletic ability, his classmates and friends affectionately gave him the nickname "Bear Head." He later matriculated to Garden City College on a football scholarship.

A Time to Serve:
Arnold had a diverse and impressive career, holding various professional roles that showcased his expertise and versatility: mechanic, heavy-duty equipment operator, and truck driver. He was taught and trained by the best—his father, DaDa. He was employed as a truck driver and heavy equipment operator with Paving Lady. His work experiences also included time on the road trucking statewide for his nephew's business, "SMSC Trucking."

A Time to be Blessed:
Arnold was blessed with a beautiful daughter, Martina, who was the light of his life. In 2019, he was joined in holy matrimony to Roxanne, creating a loving partnership that enriched his life.

A Time to Love:
Arnold had a loving and supportive family. He enjoyed spending time with them at family gatherings, going fishing with the guys, and hanging out with his cousins, Gary and Jeremiah. His passion for the Miami Dolphins, shared with his father, was a testament to the deep connections he cherished the most. Junior will forever be in the hearts of his 3MJ family.

A Time to Rest:
On Saturday, May 24, 2025, Arnold entered the arms of the Master. He will be adored and forever cherished for the joy he brought to all who crossed his path.

A Time to Mourn:
Arnold is preceded in death by his mother, Mattie Ruth Joachim; his grandparents, Eva Mae Garvin, Lexcilia Philoxin, Stvilus Joachim, and Jessie Cooper; and his nephew, Eugene Miller.
