Mr. Arturo Huerta

Deeply saddened to learn of the loss of Art. He was the sunshine in the room when we were fortunate to have him in meetings. Art was a devoted family man. He spoke so lovingly of his wife and daughter. His humor was infectious! We are going to miss seeing him but memories will live on forever. May God give his grieving family courage and strength. Mournfully,

I was so desperately sad to hear of Art's passing. Before I returned home to the UK a few years ago I worked with Art in Houston within Shell for 3 years and I was always struck by his continued positivity, humour, thirst for excellence and sheer hard work

My deepest condolences to Art's family who he always talked about with such pride.

Sincerely,
Mark Quartermain

Art was a unique individual. He had an innovative, entrepreneurial, maverick spirit and was eager to welcome you along for the ride. He was always open to sit down and listen. He was my supervisor for a number of years, but I can say he was more than that. I would meet with him once in a while for a coffee and we would chat. I got to know him and his family through his stories and he came to know mine. He was incredibly smart and got things done. I mean, who writes a series of books, builds web sites and self publishes, while having a full time job? Art does, did… He was generous, kind, always enthusiastic and assertive, but humble and I’m sure going to miss him...

Art has been a dear colleague, always friendly, open to new ideas and with a great taste for restaurants. When I shared during a dinner that I had been an exchange student and still am in touch with my hostfamily in Phoenix, he spontaniously chose to take an exchangestudent into his own family. What a great guy. He had to leave us way too early and he will be dearly missed.

I am so sorry for his family and wish them strength and God´s blessings in this difficult time.

My memory of Art is someone who always went out of his way to make sure you were comfortable in his company. He did this through sharing stories of his family, holidays, personal experiences and hobbies which always ended in a joke. I was in awe of his level of knowledge on a wide range of topics.

My deepest condolences to his family, the world has lost a great person. God Bless

Art was my boss was for over 3 years and inspired me to perform even when times were tough. He was a real people person and whilst being talented and skilled way beyond Shell, he led from the front trying to develop people. It was a real shock to hear of his passing and I know he will be missed among his friends and colleagues.

He always talked about his family and how especially proud he was of his daughter. My sincere condolences go out to them. He always took the time to ask about my family and even sent a signed copy of his book to my daughter so she could enjoy his passion.

Art, you will be missed.

Art could tell a story like no one else. He did it to share of himself and of his family, making me and others comfortable as a result.....and of course we always laughed! His smiles and gigglings while he told the stories were so endearing - I have the pictures in my mind. ... For that I will always be grateful. By the way, I don't think he would mind i am saying "giggling".

He was my support during one of my most challenging jobs at Shell - he was my boss and friend. I'm sure his family has heard some of those crazy stories of the crazy woman.

He not only touched my life, he touched my son's. Art had many talents, and my son wanted to learn from him. So one lunch hour, the three of us sat at a picnic table in front of City Hall and Cole absorbed so many learnings. .....And Cole met a one-of-a-kind man.

I thought something was wrong these past months, more fervently the last few weeks. God was whispering in my ear, but I didn't "hear" . You will be missed, terribly... my friend and boss.
