Godspeed Arthur, and thank you for sharing a part of your life with us.

Fair winds and following seas sailor.

Thank you for your service to this nation.

Art did various readings for our organization. He was a delight to work with. He was always so positive and friendly. He made the words on a page come alive so easily. Thanks Art for your skills and friendship.

Art was truly skillful in his work. He could take the words from the page, think the thoughts they conveyed and with that thought supported by all that he had experienced and all that he was, give us with his voice a thrilling, vivid awareness of the subject at hand. When he spoke, we understood. He was a noble man, yet a humble servant in attitude. Thanks, Art for all you did.

I grew up listening to Art Gilmore narrating "Highway Patrol" and hearing him on other shows, always easy to tell it was him, he had a distinct voice and style. They threw away the mold after they made his voice.
