I knew Mike for over 7 years and had coffee with him most morning's at Estel's. It has come as a great shock to find out. If there is anything I can do in England can some one let me know. We send our condolence to his family.

So young!

The funeral service of the Late Michael Arnott will take place on Saturday 17th October, 2009 at Roman Catholic Church, San Pedro, Ambergris, at 3:00 p.m. and the burial will follow. The body may be viewed at the Church from 1:30 p.m. to 2:00 p.m.

Sad news...damn.

Mike is gone...I still cannot believe it...he was a dear friend and will be sadly missed by everyone who had the pleasure of knowing him. I met Mike 20 years ago when I first came to Belize. At that time he was in and out of Belize with the RAF, He ended up his career with serving the last few years on loan from the British government serving the Belize Defence Force Airwing. Mike always wanted to live in Belize and reserved a position with Tropic Air so that he could continue to work and live in Belize. After his daughter was born in England and his commitment was finished with the British forces Mike and his lovely family moved back to Belize and he entered employment with Tropic Air LTD. From the very start he was a great asset to the company, as time went by he eventually was promoted to Quality Manager of Tropic Air LTD. I cannot express how good a job he made of this heavy task, there was no 9 to 5 ever even considered, the man was totally responsible and worked 7 days a week. If I live to be a hundred years old I really doubt if I will have the pleasure of knowing someone and calling him friend the way I new Mike . God rest your soul Mike you will be missed.

Mike was real nice nice guy . meet him at Estel's . Still can not understand shit happing to nice guys ..life is strange ..Again like i say if you can live the dream [DO IT NOW ! ! ! ].MIKE REST IN PEACE ..AND MAY GOD BLESS..

Amen captjeff.

OMG, I have just found out that Mike has gone! I have known Mike since 1980 when we served together in the RAF. He was the most genuine and one the greatest men I have known. It was a pleasure to have been able to have been able to call him a friend. Some of my most treasured memories include Mike, from work, drinking, playing backgammon in the Ambergris Lodge, touring europe in our younger days etc. My heart goes out to Manitta and Kirsty. May you rest in peace Mike.

I just cant believe the sad sad news. We have only just found out. We have known Mike since 1980 when Noddy and him used to babysit me and my Sister in Germany! What a lovely lovely Man. = Only the good die young, but that doesnt make it any easier to deal with. Our thoughts are with Manitta and the family.

Thanks for the memories Mike! xx
