Joan, my thoughts are with you at this time.  Better still, God is with you.  I think of you and Art every time I drive past his plumbing company. I remember the beautiful growing plants in the windows and think of you.

Dear Joan and Family,

We are thinking of you and holding you in prayer. You and Art were/are such loyal supporters of the caring work and ministry of the United Church of Christ institutions here and abroad.

God's comfort and peace be with you,
The Reverends Don and Priscilla Bizer

Prayers and blessings to all of you from Parkway UCC, St Louis.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time. Not knowing the latest facts regarding Art's health, I hope he didn't suffer for a long period of time and had a peaceful death. It was my pleasure to know him and you for almost all of my lifetime (over 70 years). GOD BLESS. Jack Kempf

Joan,
I'm Dale Vogt. My brother Doug and I were confirmed at Hope UCC. When my father, Walter Vogt was killed in an automobile accident it was you who brought us comfort. You gave the services for dad's funeral. You visited mom, Alice Vogt, in the hospital. You wept with her, laughed with her, and gave her the will to live. She is now 97. Please accept our deepest sympathies for your loss. God bless you & your family.

Dear Joan.  I will miss seeing him at the Lionel club and talking about airplanes and trains.  He was always a great guy to be around and take a ribbing about all his Alaska engines hench forth his nickname of "Alaska Art"!  You and your family and all of us were truly blessed with him in our lives.  May God bless all of you.

I'm so glad I was able to see you two in church last week and to be able to give Art a hug once more. You and Art were always there for the kids in the youth group when Randy and I were dating and then were able to attend our wedding. You have a very special place in our hearts and always will. 
Randy and Kathy Hall

Dear Joan,
You have my deepest sympathies and prayers. May God hold you in the palm of His hand and wrap Her loving arms around you, granting you and your family grace sufficient for each day.

Your Dad will be missed by so many lives he has touched.  My favorite memory will  be of him sitting in the favorite chair at work with the Post Dispatch.  I will miss him.
