His four brothers also survive him: David Salvietti of Oakville, CT; Michael Salvietti and his spouse, Susan, of Oakville, CT; Mark Salvietti of Vernon Beach, Florida; and Dennis Salvietti of Waterbury, CT. He was pre-deceased by two brothers, Ronald Salvietti and Robert Salvietti, and two sisters, Sandra Jalbert and Cindy Campagna.

Arthur worked as a machinist at Iseli Company in Terryville, CT, for over twenty years. He continued as a machinist in Waterville, ME, until his retirement, at which time they returned to CT before settling in NC for the last eight years of his life. In his leisure time, he enjoyed playing softball, bowling, golfing, and woodworking. A true sports enthusiast, he was an avid fan of NASCAR and the New York Yankees.

Holly would like to extend her heartfelt thanks to the amazing staff at Transitions Lifecare in Raleigh, NC, for their compassionate care.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to Transitions Hospice Home. A memorial and celebration of Art's life will take place at the family's convenience. He will be deeply missed but forever remembered by all who knew and loved him.
