Sadly, on January 17, 2022, Arthur "Art" Joseph Espinozo, passed at the age of 87.

He was born the son of Arthur and Jeanette Marie Espinozo in New York and would come to this area twenty years since.  Art was a career member of the Air Force, retiring after 20 years.  He spent a further 20 years in the aerospace industry continuing his trade as a aeronautic sheet metal mechanic.  A good number of those years he resided in Okinawa, Japan, where he would meet the love of his life Kunsun Espinoza.  Airplanes were his passion but he also enjoyed vintage cars.  He was a romantic, a dreamer, who loved to tell stories even though some of those stories were not true.  He had a very laid back style in both his appearance and his attitude.  Art is a Veteran of two wars, Korea and Vietnam and he holds a Life Membership in the VFW.

Surviving him are his dear wife of 39 years, the afore mentioned Kunsun Espinoza and his two loving daughters, Anna and Angie Espinoso.  Art joins in passing his brother, the Late  Antonio "Tony" Espinoso and has three sister.  He will be missed by his 4 grandchildren.
