  "Dear Betty & family, we are deeply saddened & shocked to learn of Art's sudden passing. We only learned of it today. The 5 years that I worked for him were fantastic. He was the ultimate boss and I learned so much from him. In fact, even today I think of him often as when faced with a tough decision I ask myself what would Art do or how would he handle this. I'll never forget one of the first things he said to me - "make the hard decision - they will not always like you for it, but they will respect you for it". I am very regretful that with our busy lives that we didn't keep in touch after his retirement. We would like you to know that you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers during this most difficult time. Sincerely, David & Kelley Button & family"
