 | Arthur Milton Tuers
Art was born and raised in the Annapolis/Eastport, MD area, and although he ran an air conditioning and heating business, he has all of his life been a waterman at heart. You can take a look back at the Chesapeake Bay through Art's eyes at http://vimeo.com/7599215. |

Obituary published 20 Jan 2018 in the Capitol Gazette, Annapolis, MD
Arthur M. Tuers, 87, of Eastport, passed away Friday January 12 after a short battle with pancreatic cancer. Arthur was born in Eastport to Lawrence and Viola, where he grew up with brothers Lawrence (Jumbo), Billy, Harry, and sister Edith. Harry currently resides in Ohio. He was happily married to his wife of 56 years, Olga Louise. He is survived by his daughter Nancy Schmidt, grandson Bill Crandall, daughter-in-law Sharon, and great grandsons Quinn and Owen.Arthur joined the navy after high school where he served in the North Atlantic aboard the 'Fesseden'. Employed in the HVAC industry, Arthur spoke fondly of the decades he volunteered at the Eastport Fire Department. More recently, he volunteered his time at the Annapolis Maritime Museum providing a priceless living history of the area. Arthur was a passionate advocate of the bay; he crabbed, fished and hunted on her shores his entire life. He was kind and generous, tough when he had to be, and he will be sorely missed. There will be graveside service February 3, at 2 o'clock, at Hillcrest Cemetery on 1911 Forest Drive, 21401, with a celebration of life to follow at the Annapolis Maritime Museum, 723 2nd St, Annapolis, 21403 at 3 o'clock. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to the Maritime Museum.
