Mary, You, Art and I met at a Lafayette reunion in the late 90's. I just learned of Art's passing. When we were in college, Art and I were freshman roommates, fraternity brothers and very close friends. Art had a great heart and took care of people, especially me. He looked after me and took me out to dinner on my 21st birthday. I baby sat for young Frankie during those day. I deeply regret that he and I lost touch after graduation but I followed his succesful career with pleasure. Please know that Art will always be in my thoughts. He was a great friend.

To the entire Conway family- I am the classnotes columnist for the class of 1968 at Lafayette College.I regret having just found out about "Toby's" death. From my use of the nickname "Toby" it is probably obvious that I knew him a long time. We were friends in college at Lafayette and I enjoyed reminiscing with him at the reunions. Unfortunately we did not keep in touch in between. On occasion over the years we saw each other at college functions. if someone would take the time to send me a eulogy I will gladly distill it into a feature in my classnotes column.For now please accept my condolences on behalf of myself personally and the entire class of 1968.Thank you. Sincerely , Howard Rednor
