Art was a part of the O’Keefe family for as long as I remember, back to when I was 5 years old and he was dating Sharon, my godmother. He was an active part of our family being at every event we had. I’m so sorry, Lynn, and Jon, Lauren and Jim as well as all the grandchildren and his wife Carol. I just found out about his passing. We’re sorry we were unable to attend. Love is going out to all of you, Donna, Pattie, Tatiana(Paisley & Liam)💐😘🥰❤️

Art Sherman’s smile lit up a room! He was sweet, caring & loving. He was always very helpful in any way he could be. He’d give the shirt off his back to someone in need. I’m blessed to have known him and to have been in his presence. Lauren & Lynn and your families, I pray that your beautiful memories will help you through this difficult time. Much love to all who have been touched by Art’s genuine love. 💔
