Born on March 23, 1953; in Franklin County, NC to Gilbert and Elsie Webb.
From Krista Flair:
Art and his dad were in his dad's private plane on a beautiful sunny day in October when, on attempting to land, a wing caught the top of a tree and nose dived into the ground. Art's father was killed on impact and Art died on the operating table that night, Oct 1, 1985.
It was a traumatic time, especially for his kids, two belonging to us - Jessica and Clint, and Sarah, belonging to Art and his second wife. Most will probably remember his wit, athleticism on the football field, and his musicality.
From One of his many brothers:
Before and even after he met Krista, Art was best friends with Bill Culton, Beth Martin (deceased), Ann Clark and her brother Robin (deceased). They were all like peas and carrots.
