Art enjoyed building things: houses, barns, anything with a saw in one hand and a hammer in the other. He served during WWII in the US Navy and retired from the CF&I. He and Billie enjoyed traveling, usually with their truck and camper. On one of these trips they discovered a need to help people, and to spread the gospel. Therefore, Feed My Sheep Mission was established. What an exciting life he led, he will be deeply missed by so many.
