I am very sorry to hear about Mr. Blumer passing. You have my deepest sympathy. It was wonderful seeing all of you a few years ago. My father also passed on 8/16/14. I'm sure the two of them are playing around of golf.

Even though it was years between visits, when we would meet, Art and Rita would always be so interested in catching up on our lives and what our families were doing. I remember Art being a good friend and cousin to my Dad and that he was always fun to be around. My deepest sympathy to Rita, David and the rest of the family.

It is with great sadness that we heard of Mr. Blumer's passing. We have been neighbors for forty years. We moved to Lake Avenue in 1973. We think it is going to last forever. We have missed you.

It is with great sorrow we heard of Mr. Blumer's passing this morning. Art and Rita were great neighbors who welcomed us to Lake Avenue 18 years ago. It was a pleasure knowing Art and he will be sorely missed by everyone in the community.
