We send our condolences to Fay and all the family at this sad time. Our memories of Art and all the times we spent with the Wilson family were always a great time for our family - trips and parties at the camp and their kindness to all of our family. We surely know he was welcomed to heaven by Sheral and other family members who loved him and that is a blessing for all of us to know.
Our love from Ben, Connie and all the Kessler family
