Art will always be remembered for his wit, laughter & good humor, and the very intelligent, talented man he was. He was more than a "friend". Our family always considered him "part of our family". We will cherish all the great memories we have of fun times together.
We are here for you Carol. Our Love,
Missy & Rich

Art was one of the kindest and most fun loving people we have ever known. His laughter and sense of humor always added to our day. We will remember him always.

We are so sorry to hear that you lost your husband and best friend. It was fun spending time with you both at a spring training game last year. We will miss his ever present smile. You are in our thoughts.

Oh, Carol...so very sorry to hear you tell us that Art passed away. Yes, Art was a talented cook, and all of us at South Denver Heart Center heard a story or recipe or two from Art! We have, and will always miss him, but please know that Art is surely in a better place, no pain, heartaches or worries. Such a comforting man, listening to anyone with troubles. Please take care of yourself. Our Love.

So sorry about Art. We also have good memories of both Art and Carol which go way back. Cub Scouts at Godsman Elementary. Going out to dinner with the two of you and the Stouts plus all the cub scout activities. Especially one incident where the boys were playing softball and our youngest son Greg caught a ball in the outfield to help win the game and Art ran out and picked him up and carried him in from the outfield. May his soul rest in peace.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family in this time of sorrow. On Sunday morning we went to Lindomar for brunch and said a prayer for Art. We will always remember all the good times we had on the beaches of Puerto Vallarta as well as all the good times we had at our party with all our friends.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
