Casey "Deuce" Joe Arneson (27) of Fargo, ND was involved in an accident and welcomed into the arms of Jesus on Friday, July 1, 2022, in Rochert, MN.

Casey was born on July 18, 1994, in Fargo, ND to Dell and Jackie Arneson. He graduated from Oak Grove High School in 2013 and was engaged to be married to Alison Goplen next month.

Casey was an avid outdoorsman. He lived to hunt and fish with his dad, brothers, and close friends. His favorite spots to hunt were at their farm in Mott, Tower City, and near Pelican Lake. We'd tell you where he loved to fish, but he wouldn't want us giving out his most lucrative fishing coordinates.

Casey was a talented race car driver, and some of his happiest moments were behind the wheel of his #2 car. He was known in the racing community for his smile, humor, and fierce competition. "The Flying Deuce" was most proud of taking the checkered flag at the 2013 B-Mod Nationals in West Plains, MO.

Casey was employed at I-29 Trailer Sales. He wore many hats and wasn't afraid of hard work. It wasn't unusual to find him back in the shop, wearing a set of overalls, and getting his hands dirty.

Casey often bent the rules and got away with it because of his smile, quick wit, and charm. You couldn't say "no" to Casey, and he knew it. He may have been the littlest brother, but he always had the biggest ideas.

Casey is survived by his fiancée, Alison Goplen; parents, Dell (Virginia) Arneson, and Jackie Arneson; brothers, Cale (Jill) Arneson, Levi (Hannah) Arneson, and Austin (Angela) Arneson; grandparents, Bob and Joanne Arneson; Nieces and nephews, Kate, Cooper, June, Emmett, Leo, and Walker; Several aunts, uncles, cousins, and close friends.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents, John and Camillas Stimmel; cousin, Jason Olson; and aunt, Deb (Arneson) Gaw.

A funeral service will be held at Hope Lutheran Church (South Campus) on Thursday, July 7, 2022, at 11:00 a.m. (gathering one hour prior), followed by a burial at Sunset Memorial Gardens. After the burial, a celebration of Casey's life will be held at "The Race Shop" at 15 S 14th St., Fargo, ND 58103

Casey wouldn't want us making a fuss, so wear your jeans, racing shirt, Crocs, or cowboy boots.

BECKER CO, MN (KVRR) — The local racing community is mourning the loss of one of their own.

27-year-old Casey Arneson of Fargo was killed in an all-terrain vehicle crash in Becker County around 10 o'clock Friday night.

Becker County authorities say Arneson and a passenger were on Rock Lake Road about 10 miles northeast of Detroit Lakes when the UTV left the road at a corner, hit a tree, and rolled.

Arneson was pronounced dead at the scene.

His passenger, 29-year-old Joseph Starkey of Mahnomen, has non-life-threatening injuries.

Authorities say both men were wearing seat belts but no helmets and that speed was a factor in the crash.

In a social media post, Red River Valley Speedway called Arneson "a great person and an awesome wheelman".

They wrote that they were fortunate to be able to watch him turn laps and win races at the speedway for several years.

They also send out thoughts and prayers to the entire Arneson family and Casey's fiancé, Ali.

The racetrack will honor Casey by holding up "2" for Deuce on the second lap of every Modified feature for the rest of the season.
