Dear Deborah and family. We are so saddened to hear of your loss and offer our deepest sympathies. May you draw close to God during this difficult time and he will draw close to you. Matthew 5:4

I was Art's supervisor for a few years when he worked at the Dynamitron Acelerator at Argonne National Laboratory. He was a briliant and exceptional worker. He had many skills and was always calm and pleasant. I will miss him.
