Art, we all treasure you not just for the hats but for the amazing man you are. And my family and I send our best wishes to you and you are in our prayers. A little relaxation never hurt anyone[huh]

I hope you feel better soon, Art.
We've never met, but I feel like I know you from your posts and admiring your craftsmanship. I wish you the best.

Art...

I wanted to add my sentiments to this thread for your successful and complete recovery from this temporary setback.

Your hat that you're making for me to wear will wait. It's too hot here to wear it now anyway and will be too hot for some time yet. By all means, attend to yourself first and let us know of your progress.

Best regards,
Bob

I think you hit it when you commented on how amazing the internet is for bringing us all together as friends. Know that all of your friends here are thinking of you.

Take it easy...

Art,

No one is happier with your custom hats and "reworks" than I am but not all of them put together is worth your health or one bad day for you.

I noticed this thread and could not believe all the responses on just one day. It is a testament to what people think of you personally, and your work. Please take care of yourself and take your time with the orders. Your clients are loyal and respect you like no other hatter.

Art,

You remind me of my Dad, do your job (no matter what it is), do it well and take pride in it. It doesn't hurt to get some rest though!

Regards,
Hollis

Art, I wish you the best of health, but I know you won't need it. You're put here to create beautiful hats, and you won't be getting tired of it, or in a position not to do what you love any time soon. Don't you worry about that. You bring too much joy to people.

And secondly, I know you'll have to be happily making hats long enough for me to finally order mine, and long after.

Art, Please take care of yourself. Think making the hats as a relaxation method, Zen and the Art of Hats.

Best wishes

Art,

No worries about the schedule or the e-mail or the phone, etc. Give yourself a little rest, the shop and all of us will still be here! You are far too important.

Thank you for all you do for us; please don't hesitate to take a little time for yourself.

Be well!

Michael

I hope you caught a big fish

I called the house.....


Art and Mrs. Art went fishing at a nearby creek. Good medicine. Good rest.

I will call you tomorrow Art. Bev took my message.

I will be at airport having the Sundowner worked on...then to the club for a shoot in the evening. And a fillet and red wine hosted dinner....

Feel Better

Art,

I can only echo what others have said. All though I have yet to purchase a hat from you (notice I said "yet"), you have answered many of my questions with sincerity and patience. Get well soon.

Time to sit back and take care of self for a while. We all appreciate your selfless dedication to the craft and the craft as well, but we appreciate having you around more.
Best wishes to you and yours Art.

May the sun shine, all day long,
everything go right, and nothing wrong.
May those you love bring love back to you,
and may all the wishes you wish come true!
