I am sorry to hear of your loss. You have my deepest sympathies. Art would always make me laugh with his jokes. He was always very comforting and helpful when he noticed ones uneasy or unhappiness. I could talk to him about anything he was like a grandfather to me.

I'am so very sorry for your loss, I worked with Art for many years. He was a wonderful man, always there for anyone that needed his help. He always put a smile on my face, he was like a second father to everyone. He was a caring,lovable,funny man. Even if you had a bad day Art was there to tell you a joke and brighten your day.
