I am so very sorry to hear about Art. My sympathy to his family and friends. I knew Art during the time he lived in Sturtevant, and I recall happy times when we'd get together with friends and Art would play guitar. With my prayers that he is at peace, and may peace be with all those who have been closest to him.
