Arnold Kenneth Tank was born November 19, 1932, in Lawler, IA the son of Harold F. and Mabel V. (Lewig) Tank. He was baptized December 18, 1932, at the former St. John Lutheran Church in Lawler and confirmed June 27, 1948, at the former St. Paul's Lutheran Church in New Hampton.
Arnie received his education in Lawler and after his 8th grade graduation in 1948, he began working for his Dad's company, H.F. Tank Construction.
On July 16, 1955, at the United Methodist Church in Nashua, Arnie was united in marriage to Lurlean E. Smith.

After his marriage to Lurlean, the couple moved to New Hampton where he began his own construction company, building houses and apartment buildings until failing eyesight forced him to retire.
Arnie enjoyed roller skating, dancing, ice skating, NASCAR, fishing, gardening and woodworking until his eyesight deteriorated. Visiting casinos was a much enjoyed pastime. He loved taking his children camping and vacationing when they were younger and loved seeing his grandchildren as much as possible.
