Art was one person you would never forget if you knew him. Dedicated to his job and his family, loving and a Christian. I really hate that I just found out he passed and it is now June of 2017. I believe my dad, sister and I may have come to see him and Dee just a few months before. We talked about his days at Goodyear and he shared some pictures with us along with giving a few mementos of his past. I cherished them that day and I will cherish them forever. He and his family were like family to ours. I know where Art is and I will get to see him again some day. The world has lost a great man but heaven has received him with open arms.

Art was a great friend and a great person. My daughter Sarah will always remember the garden and the carrots. We always enjoyed seeing him when he came to Texas when the America was in the hangar. Art kept the blimps flying for Goodyear for many years. He will be missed.
