"On behalf of my family, I wanted you to know how much we appreciate your handling of my husband's final arrangements. Wayne Baxter assisted & guided us through the entire process with such care & compassion. Don't know what we would have done without him! Sincerely, Colleen Elledge"

"I can’t say enough about how helpful and professional Dusty Martin, the funeral director at the Aria Cremation location on NW Highway has been. From my initial call, he was kind and informative. My friend died at home while on hospice and she was picked up in about an hour after receiving the call from the hospice nurse. The person who arrived to pick her up was also very professional/respectful and allowed us to take as much time with her as we wished. When I met with Dusty the next day about arrangements, he explained the process and options available without being pushy or trying to “sell” extras. Throughout the process, he kept me informed and, for example, was careful to be certain I understood the cost of the obituary I wanted and offered some options for reducing that cost if I wished. When I stopped by for another reason and started talking about some of the problems I was having with the pictures and media I hoped to use at a memorial lunch I was planning, he not only listened patiently but offered technology advice and let me use his personal media player. I have had experience arranging cremations for four others using two other local companies, and this experience with Dusty at Aria has been by far the best one I have had."

"My Daddy’s service and our family experience at Aria Northwest Highway was truly blessed. Funeral Director Dustin Martin is the kind of person that you would like to see on a more regular basis – but in his industry – you hope to not see him that often. That being said – THANK YOU DUSTIN for your unending kindness, compassion and friendship through the process. Meeting you and discussing Dallas History, Find A Grave and my Dad’s lifelong contributions to the great City of Dallas was simply wonderful! In memory of my dad James A. Dodd, Sr. – I want to personally thank you and let you know that you made everything better in that moment. Your calling to “Be There” is spot on. Aria has a one in a million guy in you! Bling Blinky of TEXAS Shout Out: God Bless You!!"

A beautiful, so very kind and loving man. Forever remembered. We are here for you always. Love Quinton, Roman and Debbie Davidsson.
Bob was a good man. Never a bad word, raised voice. Professional in business dealings and with employees, always. My best wishes to Debby and his children. -Joe Hunter
My sincerest condolences to Debbie, Ben and Christi for your loss. Of all his endeavors, he was proudest of each and every one of you.
I stand in awe of Bob’s contributions over the last 30 years. His life is a testament to talent, class, integrity and hard work. He was always humble and kind. He collaborated with people, embracing both my Aggies and his Longhorns.
Intensely creative, Bob pioneered photo-realistic architectural rendering on Mac computers before his peers. His designs captured a timelessness about them. He contributed significantly to Modern International Style, certain materials and construction techniques. His designs inspired other firms.
If he had an ego, he didn’t show it. He avoided his earned “starchitect” status that lesser designers will never achieve. He always credited his family and team with his success. I am better because of Bob’s inspired designs.
In almost twenty years I never saw Bob get angry. Concerned, yes. Disappointed, sometimes. But I never heard him yell. I sure did hear him laugh! He will be missed.
Bologna! Bob had a dark side and though he rarely showed it it was there because I experienced it on more than one occasion if you didn’t agree with him. It was ugly and he threatened me and scared me. Too bad I couldn’t tell him face to face what he did to me because I just found out he passed in 2015.
Deb, so sorry for your loss. I hope to see you soon.
Love to you and your family.
Gayla
I’m very sorry for your loss. My thoughts are with you. I’m sending you my love, Peter A Miller
I worked with Bob & Charles in the late 1970s, early in their careers, before they ventured into their subsequent partnership. Bob exhibited great talent at a young age, had a wonderful sense of humor, and an infectious laugh. My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family.
Debbie,
I am too, sorry for your great and unfortunate loss. Bob was my boss, though I always felt he was my friend. I was honored to make the usual beer run at GDA! I practice the same at my office, and always think of Bob. Just one of the things I remeber… He was a true mentor to me and I contacted him often for both business and design advice and he was always willing to give his honest and sincere advice! I remember fishing with Bob at the company pick-nick… never thought I’d know anyone that loved fishing more than I… Bob did! Debbie, so glad to know and work with you both. I am sorry for your and his children’s loss as so many are. My sincere condolences. Mark
My condolences for the loss of a great man. I worked for Bob in the mid 90’s and just heard of his passing. He will be missed.
