Arthur C. Neumann

What a Great Man Art was. My father Bill Kurtz and I spent many times at his Rod Shop and Art and my father spent time on the river fishing. I had the Honor to meet his son Gary at Bolling AFB. RIP Art and thank you for being a part of my life and my fathers.

What a great man Art was and the wonderful memories at the Rod Shop with my father Bill who fished with Art. Do you Gary remember me meeting you at Bolling AFB when you let me climb into Marine 1 helicopter, your father told my father to look you up since I was in the POTUS Honor Guard there at Bolling. Your father was so kind to me and great advice too. I miss Art and my Dad, I'm sure they are wetting fishing lines together.

Art is definitely in the back of my heart and I think of him often. I visited with him often over the years and have nothing but fond memories of him and his family. I miss those days and my visits with him and also miss the honest advice he always offered to me when I needed it the most.

Every spring I think of you Art and going to your shop with my Father Bill Kurtz to get stuff needed for upcoming Trout season. Thank You Art for the memory.

Art was one of my fathers (William Kurtz) best friend and mine too. Going to his shop with my Dad every yr was an experience. So proud to have known the Man who started Trout Unlimited. I miss Art and my Father very much.

I miss going to Arts tackle shop with my Late Father William (Bill) Kurtz so much and talking about Trout. Thank You Art for being one of the founders of Trout Unlimited Organization and being a part of my fathers life and mine.

My heart and prayers go out to all of Arts family. Art was quite the man as I grew up from a teen to adult visiting his Fly Shop that my father William kurtz took me to. I proudly spoke for Art before congress in Lansing in behalf of Trout Unlimited which he co-founded. Art told my father for me to look up his son Gary Neumann in Wash. D.C. Art was so proud of Gary being Pilot on Marine 1 Helicopter.
My father is waiting to wet a fly with you Art.
Thank you for being a part of my life...

Condolences to the family of Arthur Neumann as well as all of his many friends and associates he touched during his service in WWII, at Eaton Corp and through his passion for Trout Unlimited and custom fly rod manufacturing ...What a legacy he leaves!! I was blessed and honored to get to know him and his story back in 2008 while working on a story about his Hall of Fame induction. I knew right away, he was a gem, and his river flowed through many lives... Rest in Peace, my friend ... Paul...
