Callister Jr., Arthur Armitage Needham Arthur Armitage Needham Callister, Jr. A Friend To All Arthur A. Callister, at age 82, left this world on April 19, 2005. Art did not want to give up living, which was usual for his determination and persistence throughout his life. He died from complications of age and dementia. Art was born in Salt Lake City, Utah, and was the second child of four born to Arthur A. Callister, Sr. and Alverda Reid. Art married Miriam Fitzgerald (deceased) in the Salt Lake Temple. They had six children: Allen (deceased), Joan (deceased), Linda (deceased), Edward, Mary Ann and David. He has 13 grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. Art grew up on the family farm on Redwood Rd. He learned how to care for animals and enjoy the livestock and horses. Art played professional tennis and served in the Navy during World War II. After the war, Art worked for Utah Construction in the bookkeeping department. It was here that the spirit of this successful businessman emerged, and Art soon left this employment. In 1952 Art and his father started trading wool. The business grew to include selling livestock supplies. Art's father retired a few years later and Art was on his own. With his hard work and great people skills, the store continued to grow. He added horse tack, clothing, boots and hats to his inventory. As Art's children grew, they were brought in and taught lessons of life through the business. In 1995 Art tried to retire in St. George, Utah, however it was short lived and he opened a second store with a great friend, Dennis Butler, in Utah's Dixie. A third store was later opened in South Jordan. Art enjoyed riding in the Palomino Posse Horse Club, and riding horses out on the trail with his family and friends. Art rode his horse with pride as the Grand Marshall at the Days of '47 All Horse Parade in 1996. He enjoyed working on the Days of '47 Rodeo Committee for over 15 years. He also loved to dance, and said that he was too young to take up golfing at the age of 80. Most of all, Art loved to socialize with his customers, friends and business associates. Art was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He had various callings, but the one he remembers the most was working with the Boy Scouts, and the eight day trip he took with 32 horses and 25 scouts to Mirror Lake in the Uinta Mountains. This is a trip the boys will never forget. Dad had a great time and was tired for a month or two afterwards. Thanks to all of Dad's acquaintances and friends for sharing your lives with him. Also, thank you to the staff at Alta Ridge Alzheimer's and Rocky Mountain Hospice for their care and compassion shown to Art in his last days here on earth.
