Hazel, Ysanne,& Susy,

We were stunned to hear the news of Art's passing. We never knew a more easy going guy who enjoyed life and made the most of it. He was fortunate to have you all as a family and was so proud of you all as you were fortunate to have him as a husband and dad.

He served his country honorably and we all thank him for his service.

We shall always remember him as one of the early arrivals at our 4th of July parties in York as he would often appear on his beloved motorcycle and Joyce would mother-hen him about being careful on the motorcycle.

We offer you our thoughts, prayers, and deepest sympathy.

Love,

Bob & Joyce Radochia
