He is survived by his children, Michelle Kozloski (Stephen), Tracy, Scott and granddaughter Sarah.
Art had many dear friends from the Fire Department as well as the 24 Hour Fitness Gym he frequented.
They were his extended family, and he cherished them. Too many to list, but YOU know who you are!
Art also remained close friends with his X wife Diane Heber-Pinson and her husband Arnold.his " Husband-In-Law".
Art will be remembered for his great sense of humor, his deep devotion to those he loved, and to his total selflessness.
