In Loving Memory of Vanessa Denise Arnold, a beloved wife, mother, daughter, sister, and friend. Vanessa left us on August 3, 2024, at the age of 48, surrounded by the love of her family.

Born on May 1, 1976, in Torrance, California, Vanessa was a beacon of light and love to all who knew her. Her kindness, compassion, love, and unwavering strength touched the lives of everyone she met. She was a devoted wife, sharing 30 wonderful years of marriage with her husband, Wayne, filled with love, laughter, and countless cherished memories.

Vanessa's heart overflowed with an extraordinary love for her children, Wayne Jr. and Brianna. They were truly the center of her world, bringing her immense joy and purpose. Throughout her life, she dedicated herself to creating happiness for her husband, children, and family, always striving to fill their lives with warmth and laughter.

During her courageous five-year battle with cancer, one of her greatest sources of strength was her beloved nephew, Matthew Elijah LaBostrie. Their bond was unique and profound, a connection that only they could fully understand, providing comfort and companionship in challenging times.

She is survived by her husband, Wayne Arnold Sr., her two beautiful children, Wayne Jr, and Brianna, her mom, two sisters, brother, and amazing nephews and nieces, who will forever hold her in their hearts. Her legacy of love, kindness, and strength will continue to shine through them and all who were fortunate enough to know her and loved her.

A celebration of Vanessa's life will be held on August 30, 2024, in Stanton, California.

Though she is no longer with us, Vanessa's spirit will live on in the memories we cherish and the love we continue to share. She will be immensely missed and forever remembered and forever loved.
