Arthur Bedolla
07/17/1957- 02/25/2025
With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Arthur Bedolla, who left this world on surrounded by the love of his family.
Arthur Bedolla was born 07/17/1957 in Toppenish to Nasario and Regina Bedolla. From a young age, he learned the value of hard work, family, and faith-values that shaped the incredible man he became.
Throughout his life, Arthur wore many hats. He spent years working in agriculture for The Champoux dedicating himself to cultivating the land and ensuring a better future for his family. Arthur was also a successful career in car sales for Phil Frank Auto Sales, where his kindness, honesty, and warm personality made a lasting impression on everyone he met. But perhaps his greatest calling was as a foster parent, opening his heart and home for 36 years to children in need, offering them love, guidance, and stability.
Above all, Arthur was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. He loved his family fiercely and believed in the power of kindness, hard work, and faith.
His presence leaves an unfillable void, but the lessons and love he shared will live on for generations.
He is survived by his wife Linda Bedolla, sisters Rosa Sanchez (Lupe Sanchez), Carmen Gonzalez, and brother Victor Bedolla.
Daughter; Hoppie Bedolla Torres (John C Torres), Nancy Bedolla, Delia Soto, Janet Bedolla Amituana’i (Loane Amituana’i), Hailey Bedolla Bridgewater.
