Our family is so thankful for all of the support, prayers and thoughts through this very difficult time.
In lieu of flowers, the Art Valdez Memorial Fund has been established for those wishing to give a gift as an expression of sympathy to help the family with a memorial celebration of Art's life and related expenses. Any additional funds will be donated in Art's name to the Colorado Horse Rescue, Su Teatro Theatre, and the CHAC Gallery & Cultural Center.
Contributions may be made via PayPal or at any Wells Fargo Bank to the:

"You passed so suddenly and most unexpectedly in Texas while fully enjoying your life, family, retirement, and exciting explorations of all this world has to offer. Though we are still awaiting the answer of why, and still in the process of bringing you home to Colorado, your gift to us in the midst of this despair, is that you lift our spirits by making us feel so amazingly blessed for having someone in our lives so worthy of the words... loving, honorable, beautiful, and most of all kind hearted. Thank you."
"You are greatly loved, and we are greatly honored.”
