To me, he will forever be "LTC Deverill"; and to him I will be always indebted.

LTC [at the time] Deverill and I were transferred to Dalat, capital of Tuyen Duc Province RVN, in Dec 1967 to replace officers who had been killed by a mysterious new VC unit. Six weeks later, Tet 1968, we learned Why. As the Advisory Team Chief, Deverill calmly led us thru a period of great tension, danger and tragedy.

Art was a Warm and great neighbor, who invited me to one of his bridge classes. Just a delightful man.

Art was a genuine, witty, and kind man who always made you feel better about your day. It was always nice seeing him and his "gang" as we called it, on Monday night's for half priced burgers. My heat is broken but I know he is in a better place. My heartfelt condolences to his wonderful family, and thank you for bringing him in making our day brighter!
