I would like to express my deepest condolences to the Family of Art a precious man who knew no strangers. He will always hold a special place in my heart. Throughout Art's life he gave so much and got so little in return yet his acceptance of others was unconditional. Art you are not forgotten, you are with long lost loved ones, friends no longer in pain. You will live in our hearts & minds eternally! Joy
