Very sorry for your loss. I only met him a couple of times but enjoyed the meetings and I know two of his three kids and they’re a testament to how well he and their mother raised them.

So sorry to hear about the death of Art. He was a kind and gentle soul with a heart of gold. As a neighbor he was helpful and supportive and my boys were lucky enough to have been able to ‘work/play in his woodworking shop. We were neighbors for over 35 years and never any issues but always helpful and kind. Your family, friends and especially those grandbabies will miss you. Terry, please let me know if you need anything. Keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers
