Arthur David "Art" Rivers

It's been many years since Art passed, but I was just going through my contacts and Googled his name and saw the news. I worked with Art when I was a young tv producer for MTV-- we were doing a cliff diving episode for "Road Rules," and I found Art. I had to go to Hawaii to jump off the cliff, and Art took me to the 80', 60', 45', and 25' ledges. I only had the guys to go from 25 feet! Art was great to work with... I didn't know him well, but so sorry to hear of his passing.

My wife and I saw Art 25 years ago during out honeymoon. Today is our anniversary and we googled him and are sad to learn of his passing. He will always bring wonderful memories.

Art was a good friend of mine. We use to hang out together at the Columbia Jewish Center and swim and dive. He was not Jewish but the pool was close to his home. We were friends at SVHS too. I'm the one who introduced him to the cliffs at Green Hole and the Lake Murray Dam where he perfected his high dive. We will all miss you Art.

Way too soon...
I will remember the guy as a soft & comforting ocean breeze.

We, all the people that use to know Art, knew thar it was a privilege.

Clark, Jan & Grier, I'm so sorry to hear of Art's passing, and for Blair also. Please know you are all in my prayers. Love Always, Tonya Seel Marshall & Family

I was shocked to hear of his passing. It was a pleasure to have met a great guy and he was so gifted in the art of diving. Our condolences go out to Shantell and the Rivers Ohana. He will be missed.

I love and miss you so much Dad. Words can't express how thankful I am that everything you've ever done. I truly have the best Dad in the world.

The world has lost a truly gently soul. Rest in Peace

Art was a beautiful soul and will be terribly missed... May God bless you and your family.
