Like me, Artie was a car enthusiast and kind enough to let me work on my car-like a gentleman-in his garage because he had a professional lift installed there.
In addition to his good advice, he had every tool, nut and bolt organized precisely.
A kind, helpful man.
Sincere condolences to the entire family.
