Family, friends of Art. My good friend often would call to meet and go over his just completed job and the prospects of the next, excited for each. Always bringing up his love of his life Susan, his kids now grown and of course his dear Mom. I had the fortune to have grown up along Art's side and he never let you forget about his older brother each time his Mom invited us in from the hot hot days of summer.
Each time I enter a favorite spot of Art's I expect his great greeting and smile and settle for being a friend out of many who made Mc Allen what it is. Rest in peace buddy and say hello to all our other friends who have passed of the 50's, 60's & 70's.

To Art's children,
I knew your dad and your mom since our days at McAllen High School. But I lost touch with them after we graduated. Within the last couple of years I would run into your dad occasionally and we would sit and remember our high school memories. He had a wonderful sense of humor and most of all was so proud of you. He loved you very much. You have an Angel watching over you. May God Bless You always.
To Susan,
My heartfelt sympathy goes out to you. Art was so happy when he met you and spoke of how wonderful you were to him and his children. Cherish the wonderful memories you had together. May God Bless you always.

To Art's family: I have just returned to town to hear this terrible news. I spoke with Art just before his death by phone. Art befriended me, a total stranger two years ago in McAllen,and started a two year friendship that I will always cherish. His infectious humor, politeness, and love of life was so endearing. We would often meet for drinks and watch a game. I will miss him so much.

To Susan and family,
You are in our thoughts and prayers. May God give you strength and comfort.
We've only known Art a short while, but having gotten to know him over the last several months, we know that his family was always important to him. He always spoke about his mom, Susan, and his kids. He was an honest, generous soul, and we are blessed to have known him. He will be missed.

I have fond memories of Art. We worked in the mid 70's selling sporting goods together. He was a protector, a "big brother" of sorts to me and always a gentleman.
He will be dearly missed by all who knew him. May his family find comfort during this difficult time by prayer and reflection of a great father, brother and son.

With deepest sympathy I pass on my condolences. Art was not only a good friend, but a fellow co-worker in the late 70's at Edinburg Hardware. I'll truly miss his friendly smile and personality. He was a very good person and will be missed by all who knew him.
