RE: Art Brown

Thank you, Scott for posting that. I enjoyed seeing the picture of Art.

Thinking back over the past 2-3 years, we've (sadly) lost too many LODers. It's very sad. Words fail me.

I'd like to think that he's just away for a while, on Easter Island..........
 
RE: Art Brown

I also want to send my condolencs to Ginger and family.
I also miss reading the Art and Norm show.;(
I hope he's in a better place.
 
RE: Art Brown

I can't believe this. Terrible news. I considered Art a great friend. I loved his sense of humor. I will truly miss him. He was a wonderful person and I can't express how badly I feel.

It won't be the same without him.

Good bye Art,
Your friend Norm
 
RE: Art Brown

As proven by the many posts on this thread already, Art will be dearly missed, but obviously not forgotten. With the possible exception of Norm, :) Art never had a disparaging word to say about anyone. His commentary on vehicles as well as life in general, was always as erudite and insightful as it was humorous and pithy. I'm sure I speak for many people, not just myself, when I say that Art added a invaluable and uniquely enriching voice to this site.

My thoughts are with his family.
