Art was simply a great man. Although I was only around Art in the presence of his wonderful wife (and our Sales Secretary Ellen), he always treated me like he had known me for years, always carried himself with much class and was sincerely interested in how I was doing. Just as my father was in his great lifetime, Art was a shining example of the "greatest generation", and will be greatly missed by his friends and family alike.
