From a young age, Art was an incredibly talented musician who played the violin in the Austin Civic Orchestra in addition to learning the accordion, piano, and electric guitar. He always enjoyed attending symphonies, ballets, and concerts. From his two sons, Art learned to love sports and became involved as a coach for their baseball teams growing up. Additionally, he loved to encourage and attend his daughter’s dance recitals, bringing flowers to her after each performance. Art loved to travel, especially to see his family in Marcy, New York, around the world to London, France, Canada, and across the United States. Each year, Art was excited to make the short trip to Houston to attend the Polish festival to eat authentic foods and listen to music he enjoyed from his childhood. When at home, Art enjoyed working outside in the yard and fixing things around the house. More than anything, Art loved spending quality time together with his family and friends.
