Passed away on August 30, 2010 in his 103rd year after a long and beautiful life filled with sports (especially hockey) music and his pipe. He was predeceased by a loving wife Teresa, his partner of 60 years. Art was very close and special to all of his family who loved him dearly, and by whom he will be missed. He was a proud WWII vet and enjoyed his retirement of 44 years. He loved people, remembered everyone he met, and appreciated an audience for his stories.
