Arthur Lee Rahming was born June 7, 1944, in Key West, Florida to the late Otis T., Sr. and Gloria Rahming. He was the 4th son of their 11 children.

He grew up in Key West and to all he was known as "Buzzard". Arthur traveled the world as a truck driver and worked on the railroads. Some would call him a drifter. During his journey he met many people from all walks of life. Many of those he met along life's way remembered him and considered him to be a friend and frequently visited him in his neck of the woods, Key West, Florida. When he wasn't traveling, he would do masonry work. He mastered the skill of plastering.

Buzzard had a gift of making others laugh. He had many unique sayings that he loved saying and would have everyone in stitch­es after they were said.

If you knew him, you also know that he loved his family and traveling to the Bahamas where his father originated. The apple of his eye was his baby sister Carolyn (Carrie) Maclin. The love he had for her was like no other.

His Christian faith started when he was a child and the lessons that were taught throughout his life remained in him. He was a faithful member of St. Peters Episcopal Church.

Buzzard was a man that never complained therefore his short sudden battle with sickness filled his entire family with shock. Although he wasn't blessed with his own biological children, he raised many. There were those that recognized him as their father, and some would call him daddy.

On August 6, 2023, the Lord called him home from labor to rest while being cared for at Mt. Sinai Hospital in Miami, Florida. He was preceded in death by his parents, (6) sisters: Nellie Rahming, Barbara Johnson, Ruth Rahming, Eartha Mae Stafford, Orelia Rahming and Carolyn Maclin; (3) brothers: Otis T. Rahming Jr., Leander Rahming Sr. and Kenneth Rahming, Sr.

His memory and spirit will live on through his brother Alfred Rahming, Sr., his nieces & nephews, (4) special friends: Kim Davis, Patricia Jefferson, Daino Gaines, Sr. and Haywood Scott and a host of sorrowful friends who will forever miss him and cher­ish the memories that were created throughout the times.
