Hey Angie and Tony, I am so sorry to about uncle Arthur's passing away. I don't have the words to say how I felt about him. So many memories. He was always like a hero to me. To this day I can remember him giving me a bath!! 
And the trips we took out west! I still can remember some things but not all. What a time we had. I wish we could go back to those simple times. I know you will miss him so much as you do your mom. As I miss mine. But the years go by...    take care would love to see you all. God bless you.

If we are lucky in this lifetime, we want a friend like Art. When I joined the Toastmasters District Leadership team in 2001, I knew it was essential to put together the best team...and that included Art. He believed in excellence, teamwork, integrity, doin' the work and kindness. I was blessed to share his ideals and successes for six years...yes, that meant daily phone calls!! Of course the "meetings" over meals went on for almost 20 years. He was a man of endless energy, a man who could speak on most any topic with authority. I was never bored in his company. The World was made a better place with Art in it. He loved his God, his Family, his Country, his Friends, Toastmasters and Sports!!! I will miss him. Until we meet again. Ya done good Art!!!

Art Nieto was a famous leader in Arizona Toastmasters. He served in several leadership positions, including District Governor and as International Director of Toastmasters International. He was most known as the leader who chartered new clubs for 30 years. At District Executive meetings and District Council meetings he would be complimented on his good work in chartering new clubs. He often joked,”I could do more if the district budget had money for a helicopter!” That would get a laugh from the audience. In March 2015 at a District Executives meeting, he finished his new clubs report with that same quip. To his astonishment, District Governor, Brenda Bird, arranged to have a model helicopter presented as a gift and fly before Art and the audience. The crowd roared with laughter, none more so than Art.

Art was a cheerleader for every person he met.  I loved his zest and energy for Toastmasters.  As an Area Governor for District 3, I watched Art entertain and demonstrate to potential new toastmasters at demonstration meetings.   All of the attendees were excited to be there. All those potential new members loved his energy and enthusiasm. 

Art was a seasoned Toastmaster and I was so lucky to have him as a member of my home club, Papago.  He brought energy to every meeting!

Then as Division Governor, Art  was there for me every time I needed him.  I bid you farewell my friend.   I will miss you dearly.  Rest In Peace and thank you!  You have done good!!!❤️
