    Art touched the lives of everyone around him,He was a Mentor to some,a friend to many,a loving Husband,a Father and Dad, a caring Brother,a happy Grandfather,and Great Grandpa. More than anything he was at one time a brave soldier,and has always been a Patriot. All of us who have known him are the richer for it. Rest in peace my fine friend

    Lucy, You and Art had great times at the Elks (you kept a table for us). Art and I did many SCORE contacts at the Lake. We wish you the best and rest assured that the two of you were a great memorable couple. Kansas State Engineers remember each other. Gods blessing to you and your family.
