Just got back on line, and saw this very sad news. Art and I were very good friends ever since I joined the old PSF. We talked a lot, traded life stories, traded tobaccos, had great feelings and respect for each other as friends. I knew he wasn't well, and I hadn't been able to get him on the phone in the few weeks, so I knew something was wrong, and was worried about him. RIP old friend. You were one of a kind, and an assert to all who knew you.

JimInks I had not seen him here on the forum for quite some time, and his participation will be greatly missed. After all, in his many comments regarding Amphora Original, curiosity finally got the best of me and a few purchases have been made of this product. My condolences go out to his family. BTW and if you know, when did he pass Jim?

BTW and if you know, when did he pass Jim? I turned Art onto that blend a few years ago, before it was reintroduced in the American market. A couple of times, he was able to find some when Art and Miss Daisy were in the Dominican Republic. I bought it from him the first time. He gave me three pouches the second time.
I don't know anything about his passing other than he's no longer with us. I'll try to see if I can contact Miss Daisy.

And, if you cannot get ahold of Miss Daisy, don't worry about it. Its more of a "benchmark" timeline thing for me. Again, I'm sorry to hear of his passing

That's such sad news. Funny, I sent him a PM a couple of weeks ago to check if everything was OK.
Condolences to the family.

Art was a brave man who handled several severe health problems over the years with strength, dignity and endurance. He never let anything get him down, and worked at his job even past retirement when he was asked to come back. His dear wife of almost 52 years took care of him when necessary and he leaves his and her family with all the love that family can give to a person. We'll miss him greatly.
I spoke to Miss Daisy and let her know about this thread. I want her to see the affection all of us had for Art.

I posted his user page/link, to remind me of the last posts he had and the threads he started.... he was a welcoming gent. In a wheelchair and battling, diabetes, makes me pause to consider how blessed I am to have good health. It is really easy to take it all for granted.

I remember reading Arts posts, he started his day with a cup of Community Coffee. When Art no longer responded to my PM’s I knew something was wrong. Rest In Peace Art
