Our sincere condolences to you and your family. May the Lord continue to bless you. C.D and Sarah L. Kidd Jefferson, GA.

My heart-felt condolences on your great personal loss. I grieve for the community's loss as well. Art was, as others have said, a true blessing to those who knew him. He was welcoming and kind, and beamed on others with a joyful face unequaled by any one else I've ever known.
Sincerest regards,

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.
