Art, Alice, Nicole,
Debbie and I just heard about Arturo and we are deeply saddened. You are the most generous people we have ever known and we were immediately impressed with your son the first time we met him. He was a class act in every sense of the word. No doubt this was the direct result of the way you raised him. Please know that we are praying for your family and we will never forget Arturo. It is a priviledge to be able to call you friends. May the peace of God which transcends all understanding guard your hearts and minds thru Christ Jesus. Our deepest condolences.

To know Art was to love him! He quickly went from a friend to a member of our family in no time. His sincere kindness and sweet soul was loved by anyone who had the pleasure of knowing him. We will miss you more than you will know! You earned your wings way too early but we are confident you are our guardian angel now. All our love, Mario, Marcella, Gianfranco, and Giovanni Fuentes.
