March 6th will be 3 months since I lost you. It feels like an eternity. I miss you so much. You were so present. I'm not sure what I am supposed to do or what is supposed to happen. I am not prepared for this. I hope you are ok.

Art had a great sense of humor. Always showed up for work with a smile on his face, and a story to tell. A very nice man.
