I remember working with Mr. Decker at Papa Johns many years ago. I remember when I first hired him a lot of the younger employee's would say to me..."He is too old to deliver pizzas" he drove circles around those young ones! He shared many stories with me about his experiences in the service many I will never forget! May you rest in paradise, Mr. Decker!

We were so sorry to hear about Art's passing. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you. Art was like a brother to Robert. Even though they didn't see one another he was always in Roberts thoughts and the memories will be with us forever. May God bless you and guide you through these tough times.
