We are so sorry for this precious loss. Art was a true gem and a beautiful soul. Every year for many years I would take our taxes down and Art and I would catch up. We talked about life, God, our kids, homeschool and maybe taxes (lol). He was a precious gentleman. Praying for his precious family. Much love and prayers, Paul and Melissa
