Read More	Arnold, Jr., Bill Douglas May 18, 1947 - May 30, 2015 Bill Douglas Arnold Jr. died peacefully at home on Saturday morning, May 30, 2015. He was 68. He is survived by his mother, Nanele Arnold; his sister, Pamela Arnold Bair and her husband Steven; his daughter, Cary Arnold and her husband Jon Sanchez; his daughter, Cameron Arnold Jenness and her husband Richard; and his son, William Arnold and his wife Nichole. Doug also has 11 grandchildren: Mark Ling and his wife Jennifer; Spencer Ling; Logan Sanchez; Cassandra, Jordan, Carson and Noah Murray; Nick and Paige Jenness; Mauricio Mosley and Sonya Arnold. And he has one greatgrandson, Beckett Ling. Another grandchild and great grandchild are both expected later this year. Doug was preceded in death by his father, Bill Douglas Arnold Sr. A pillar of the Davis community for decades, he was honored with the C.A. Covell Award as Davis Citizen of the Year in 1994. In 1991, he became Honorary Mayor of Davis. He served as Chamber of Commerce President in 1984, a title he shared with his father Bill (1958) and daughter Cary (2011). He was President of the Rotary Club of Davis in 1987. Doug also served in leadership positions with the FamiliesFirst Volunteer Santa program, Yolo County Housing Authority, Yolo County Association of Realtors, and volunteered his time to a number of other community organizations and causes. To honor his lifelong commitment to the community, Doug was inducted into the Davis Senior High School Hall of Fame in 2014. Along with his business partner, David Taormino, Doug owned and operated Coldwell Banker, Doug Arnold Real Estate, one of the most successful Coldwell Banker franchises in the nation. Doug's parents formed the company as Arnold Real Estate in 1972. Doug soon became their business partner and, upon their retirement, took over the business. The business affiliated with Coldwell Banker in 1985, and Doug partnered with Taormino in 1991. As early as 1978, the business was rated the top real estate office in Davis and Yolo County, and has not relinquished that position since. It is continually ranked at or near the top among Coldwell Banker office of its size nationwide. But Doug's priority was always his family. He was a devoted father and grandfather, who loved planning family trips and special events. He enjoyed sharing his favorite places in the world with those he loved. Not a fan of airplanes, Doug instead took the family on a number of cruises and road trips. Birthdays and holidays were special times and he made sure the family was together and having fun. For years, he dressed up as Santa for the kids, and Thanksgiving was often spent on a family vacation. Born on May 18, 1947, in Sacramento, Doug entered a family already well established in the Sacramento business community. Opened in 1906, Arnold Brothers Inc. was the first car dealership in Sacramento. In 1955, Doug's father purchased a Pontiac dealership, and moved the family to Davis. Doug attended Davis public schools, and graduated from Davis Senior High School in 1965. While at Davis High, he served as class president, played football, was elected Homecoming king, and organized the school dances at the family car dealership. Doug also ran the family owned Hancock gas station on Olive Drive in 1965, while still in high school. The only part of Doug's adult life spent living outside of Davis were between the years 1970 and 1974, when Doug served in the San Francisco Police Department. As a police officer, Doug earned the Medal of Valor in 1973 for actions above and beyond the call of duty. His time in the city, while relatively brief, instilled in Doug a love for San Francisco that he passed along to his children through many weekends, baseball games and trips to favorite restaurants. But Doug had left his heart in Davis, and he soon returned to begin his lifelong career in business and community service. He lived in Davis for the rest of his life. Doug is remembered by family, friends and colleagues as a loving and funny man, whose heart and humanity were evident in everything he did. He brought tremendous joy to his loved ones, and leaves a legacy stretching far beyond his success in business. Doug Arnold lived life on his terms, bettered the lives of a great many people, and will never be forgotten by those who knew him. A memorial service is scheduled for 10 a.m. Monday, June 8, at the University Covenant Church, 315 Mace Blvd. in Davis. A reception will follow. In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate contributions in his honor to the Yolo Crisis Nursery, Yolo Hospice or to the donor's favorite charity.
