After one terrible snowstorm, our 8 year old was inspired to draw a picture for Art, of a man in a snowsuit pushing a snow blower. The caption read "When I grow up I want to help people like neighbor Art." Art, you readily loaned your truck, gave valuable yard advice, waved every time you drove through the neighborhood. What a treasure. You will be missed dearly.
