Art Art was a good friend, a real AP talent, although I'm sure he would smile at all these good things being said about him, even though some of them are actually true. I knew Art from his first days in Tucson and never saw him have a bad day. We should all be so lucky.

I interacted with Art periodically over 25 years, related to stories he did and interviewed or sought information from me about. A gentleman. A professional. I never saw an error in any story he published about which I had knowledge. My condolences to his wife and family. Michael J. Meehan
