During his teaching career, Art was a coach in basketball, baseball, and football at Neely’s Bend Middle School. He continued his teaching career as a teacher and Principal at Davidson Academy for an additional 15 years.
More than what he did, he was known for who he was. His well-lived life as beloved husband, adored daddy, and treasured Pop, is esteemed by his family.
