Have so many fond memories of visiting with Uncle Art. He was such a gentleman with a kind disposition and a wry sense of humour. Intelligent and wise with much character and faith, I remember a man who loved his family dearly and was a great conversationalist. I will miss you Uncle Art...and to the family, take solace that you were blessed to have had such a wonderful, caring father and husband.

You were an inspiration to me, Art. Thank you for all your volunteering especially at Scott Mission. You will be missed.

For the short time I got to spend with my Aunt Gini and Uncle Art was always great. I remember the many times I passed thru Toronto enroute to military duties overseas, calling them to say hello and visited them a couple of times in Etobicoke. Uncle Art was such a kind and special person and we will miss him. Condolences to the family, miss all my cousins and Aunt Gini, love ya,

We offer to Ginni and family our deepest condolences. Art was the most special man. He was gentle, kind, caring and we spent precious times in his and Ginni's company. We will miss him very much. Due to a prior commitment we will not be able to attend the funeral but you will all be in our thoughts and prayers. Much love to you all. Psalm 150

A beautiful soul, full of love and faith, ascended to heaven, away from us, but closer to God, leaving loneliness and sadness. We will never forget his kindness. May God give him eternal rest and the family the strength to bear the great pain.
Please accept our sincere condolences.
Lindsay & A.J. Strauss.
