To the families and friends, I send my condolences to you. I attended Pinecrest elementary and my senior year at Aiken High School with Artlee. It had been more than 20 years since I heard from her and I wondered where she was. I now know she is with God. What a wonderful little girl she was to play with in elementary school and I tell students even now about the time she beat me up and had me crying like a baby. I loved hanging with her in high school because we had such great memories of elementary school we talked about. The class of 1971 has lost a great person with a big heart. I will miss her but I will always have great memories or her. She was one of a kind. She had spirit and could really make you smile. We will all miss her dearly.
