KAUL -- Arnold (Arnie) R. Kaul "The Kraut", 71, a resident of Los Lunas for the past 20 years, passed away on Sunday, March 15, 2009. Arnie was born October 16, 1937 the son of Jacob and Bertha Kaul in Hosmer, South Dakota. He moved to Colorado before finally settling in New Mexico. Arnie came from a large family with old fashion German family values. Although Arnie lived a simple life, he was wealthy in the love he unconditionally gave and received from his large family. He loved his own space and the peace and quiet it offered. He was an avid gardner and everyone reaped the bounty, especially his garlic and the strawberries for the grandchildren. He worked hard to provide for his family. He worked construction, the oil fields, and finally settled in as a truck driver with the Pepsi Cola Company. He retired after 17 plus years to enjoy his family and home. He is dearly loved and will be missed but never forgotten. He was preceded in death by his parents, Jacob and Bertha; two brothers, Ray and Duane; his beloved wife, Elaine; son Jeffrey; granddaughter, Michelle; great- granddaughter, Jessica; and two sister-in-laws, Gayle and Mary. We have no doubt he was greeted warmly by his family.
