Not sure what to say?

I'm so glad I got to attend Uncle Art's 80th birthday party a few years ago. He and I had a conversation about my dad. We had some laughs together and we cried together while we talked. That was such a special moment that will always be in my heart. Uncle Art was one of the best.

Prayers for you all! I am so sad to hear of your Dad's passing. Sooo many years have passed since I last talked to him. He always made me smile.

Our thoughts & prayers are with the McEnaney Family.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. We met Art in '93 when he was building our house. It was the time of the flood. Art was a hard working person and he had a talent for building. Prayers and blessings to Art and the family. May he rest in peace.

We’re devastated that we won’t be able to be there for the funeral, but so grateful for all the time we were able to spend with Grandpa whenever we came into town. We will always remember Grandpa Art, especially through the beautiful and fitting grandfather clock he gifted us. It will forever remind us of his warmth, love, and the moments we shared.

I read Art’s obituary at work. For the next 30 minutes, I had to explain to coworkers why I was weeping. Art would have asked me, “Why the hell did you read it at work?” or respond with an Arthurism. Art became Uncle Art to me through marriage. I married Delbert’s daughter, Wendy. I counted it a treat when I got to see Uncle Art on one of our visits to Iowa. My favorite memory of Uncle Art is from Delbert’s funeral. I was taking a picture of the McEnaney cousins. Art couldn’t decide...

My heartfelt sympathy to the entire McEnaney family on the loss of your sweet father. May God hold you close and comfort you in your time of need. Warm hugs, lots of love, and many prayers are being sent your way.
