I loved spending every weekend with my aunt Catherine and uncle Art when I was younger. From what I could see he was a wonderful husband, father and uncle. I have very fond memories of him.

I have been seeing Art as my dental patient for many years and he had become a good friend and someone I truly looked forward to seeing. He always had a smile on his face and a kind word to say to me. Catherine, I know you will miss Art- he was a special man. I wish you peace and a smile every time you think of Art.
