Art was a great friend for many years. I have missed him in life as our lives have taken different paths over the years. I shall miss him even more now. God bless Arty.

Dear Bernie and Children, Rita and Don,

We are so sorry to hear of Art's passing. Our hearts and prayers go out to all of you.



I would bump into Art once in a while in the grocery stores and he looked a picture of health. I wish I could get Bud to shop like Art did! Art was such a good, kind person.

Take care of yourselves.
