Art worked with my father Lou Bunk at the School district and this is how my family and I were introduced to him. He was a cheerful inspiration shining light with his beautiful smile. I pray that God bless his family with Art´s beautiful gifts and memory. God bless Art!

So sorry for your great loss. Rev DeVost will remain in our hearts forever. He was a loving and caring Man of God. I am praying that, God
bring the family peace at this most difficult time. Provide them with Your comfort and gracious promises of love, strength and peace, Lord, wrap your loving arms around each one and ease their pain, surround them with the love of family and friends as they mourn the loss of their love one, knowing that he is resting peacefully with You O Lord for eternity
