Arvid was born on December 26, 1918, at his parent’s farm, southwest of Presho. Arvid graduated from Presho High School in 1938. Arvid's love of travel began in high school, when he was a delegate to the National 4-H Convention in Washington, DC. On this trip, Arvid saw and experienced the sites of Washington, DC, as well as Chicago, Lake Michigan, Detroit, Ontario, Niagara Falls, the Blue Ridge Mountains, and New York City. After high school, Arvid attended SDSU at Brookings. In January 1942, a month after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, Arvid joined the Army Air Force. As a flight engineer and a medic on a B-24 Liberator, Arvid flew on at least 50 missions with 1600 hours over water. Arvid's most memorable mission was the last flight of the B-24 known as the Daisy Mae. On a bombing run from Midway to Wake Island, the Daisy Mae was battered with 700-800 holes. The Daisy Mae returned to Midway on three engines and only 13 gallons of gas. Several crewmen lost their lives. This mission would remain a never-fading memory for Arvid and likely contributed to the fearless attitude he exhibited throughout his life. After his military service, Arvid returned to Presho. He married Arlene Olson on April 28, 1945, and together they raised their four children. Arvid was a man of many interests - the foremost being family, farming/ranching, community, and travel. Arvid served as chairman of the board for the Presho Community Center, Inc., and chairman of the Lyman Board of Education during the consolidation of the Vivian, Presho, Kennebec, and Reliance school districts. Arvid was an active member of the Presho American Lutheran Church. For decades, Arvid sang tenor in a men's quartet at numerous funerals throughout the community. He was a member of the Butrick Post 89, being honored as SD Legionnaire of the year in 1981. He was a charter member of the Presho Lions Club and active in numerous other local organizations. Arvid was active in the SD Wheat Producer, serving as president of this organization. Arvid and his son Michael were the breeders of a Chianina-Angus steer named "Diamond Jack," which was grand champion at the 1976 National Western Stock Show in Denver. Arvid was preceded in death by infant son Robert, his parents Ingeborg (Boe) and Gustaf Ambur; siblings and in-laws Lawrence and Alpha Ambur, Fern and Ernie West, Blanche and Herald Archer, Don and Alice Sanderson, and Ira Scott. www.isburgfuneralchapels.com
