Ginger, Matt, Michelle--It is with fondness and wonderful memories we remember Art. He was such a patient and caring guy through Cub & Boy Scout days with high energized boys all around. I recall him way back at Hugh M. Wood days--he saw me and came out to give me personalized service! He will be missed--he and you your families will be in our thoughts.
