I'll miss our family vacations with Art & his family. We had some great fishing trips all over the mid-west...didn't even need to catch any fish, just great time spent together. His children Peggy & Brad were like our sister and brother, i remember speeding down the street on the handle bars of Brad's bike as a younger man or lounging around the weber grill (fire pit) sharing jokes over a beer. He will be dearly misses by all that knew him.
