Artie, I will miss you. I have so many memories of you and your family. I watched my first t.v. program (I love Lucy) with you and your wonderful parents at your house.
Whenever I returned home to Atkins St. I always enjoyed seeing you around the farm. God Bless you Artie

Artie, I'll always remember you and the special memories I have of you and your family. As a child, I remember watching my first t.v. program (I love Lucy) with you and your wonderful parents.
After moving away from Atkins St., I always looked forward to saying hi to you at the farm.
Bradley St. will not be the same without you Artie. God Bless you and your family.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you Artie as well as your family.
Having just completed Berlin Fair Weekend,I can vividly recall just a few short years back when we awarded Artie the trophy for being the oldest driver with his tractor on display. He walked around the fairgrounds as proud as could be showing off his trophy.We will miss him and will add his name to our "Farmers Hall of Fame" at the Berlin fairgrounds. Dave Alkas,Berlin
