He loved to Polka Dance with Patricia and enjoyed a good fish fry. He also enjoyed trips to the casino. Art loved hosting Christmas Eve for his family. Mostly he will be remembered as an amazing husband, father, grandfather, great grandfather and great great grandfather. We will all really miss his Donald Duck voice!
He will forever be missed by his children: Diana (Ronald) Lumaye, Jeffery Van Gompel Sr., Margaret "Mugs" (Don) Sobieski, and Tina Peterson. Art also leaves 12 grandchildren, 24 great grandchildren, 1 great great granddaughter and devoted brother-in-law Bill Phillips and sister-in-law Nancy Phillips. He also leaves numerous nieces, nephews, extended family and friends. He is preceded in death by his wife, Patricia, a grandson, Sean Lumaye and a sister, Shirley Heim.
At Art's request all services were held privately. Newcomer - Green Bay Chapel was entrusted with arrangements.
Art's family would like to express their deep gratitude for the love and care given to him by the staff at Grancare and Unity Hospice during his final journey.
