Indeed, I echo the above posts. Every time I saw a post was from Art, it brought a smile to my face... I knew I was in for a treat and I was seldom, if ever, disappointed. Simply put, Art was a treasure and one I will not forget.

My sincerest condolences to you, Chris, and all of Art's family and his family at Mudcat, in which I was the better for being able to call Art a friend.

RIP, Art... and... thank you.
