Art was just a wonderful guy and an even better friend. I first go to know him when he was teaching HS and then even better when he taught at Moraine Valley College where he taught for many years. He was always upbeat and a really good instructor. He was liked and more importantly, respected by his students. His death was so sudden and unexpected. I am just glad I knew him, a terrible loss.

My heartfelt sympathies for your loss. Old memories of a 350 Chevelle, goalie equipment, 'moldy oldies', and many laughs resonate deeply within me, to this day, when I think of Art. At this imcredibly sad time may you find peace and comfort.
Love,
