Art's SUPRISE 70th Birthday Party

This one was a hard one to pull off, but the family did a great job. Art had no idea, he was quite surprised. Everyone that is special to him was there. We all sent pictures and Debbie put together a wonderful video. There were pictures of him as a little boy, pictures of him and his 2 sisters, playing football, with his cars, with his dad and my dad, and of course with best friends from high school, the video was about an hour. And with his very best friend, his son Artie (to me) but most everyone else Art. They have worked together for the past several years, fished together on several trips, and just have spent lots of time together. A relationship that any dad and son would like to have.
Pictured are some of his grandchildren. Between he and Janet there are several.
Janet and Art. They sure look happy. I really don't know how Janet kept the surprise a secret!!
Art has been in my life longer than anyone else I know, and what a blessing. We don't get together often enough but when we do it is always a great trip down Memory Lane, laughter and tears and more laughter and tears. He even lets me drive his cars, and not to many people get to do that! He has always been a special person in my life! Thanks Art for all you have done for me, especially your love and support!
