Art Stroud, 60, passed on Saturday, March 1, 2014.

He was born in Cleveland, OH. Upon moving to Brevard County in 1964, Art took up pitching in the Little League and surfing. He had his own business as a house painter, played guitar and enjoyed blues and jazz.

Art was devoted to his family, and leaves behind his mother, Doris Stroud; brothers, Jim and Tom (Marcia) Stroud; sisters, Marie Stroud and Barb (Owen) Holmes; and his nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his father George Stroud; and his brother, John Stroud.

A memorial service will be held on Tuesday, March 11, 2014 at 1:00pm at St. Mark's United Methodist Church in Indialantic. Donations in Memory of Art Stroud may be made to St. Mark's Church (for their Brevard Children's Hunger Project), or Surfrider Foundation, Cocoa Beach Chapter.

The Life Event Center at Florida Memorial is entrusted with arrangements.

The body of Art Stroud was found Monday morning, (3/3/2014). The actual accident happened 2 days before, 2105 N A1A, Indialantic, Florida.

Nancy Chancey, 59, of Indialantic struck another vehicle while changing lanes shortly before 1:00 p.m. Saturday, (3/1/2014). Her Dodge Challenger went air born, flipped several times, settled on its roof and caught fire. She was ejected in the crash and died at the scene. It was estimated she was traveling in excess of 100 miles per hour. The occupants of the car she clipped were unhurt and refused treatment. She had a long history of abusing the rules in an effort to deal with her own demons and drama. On Saturday the curtain closed for the last time, her habit for breaking the rules ended, unfortunately so did the life of Art Stroud.

People who knew him described Art as a peaceful soul who enjoyed painting houses and surfing in between contracts. That's why he was walking there on A1A that day, in transit to a surf date with the Atlantic.

A witnes at the scene on Saturday told responding officers that there had been a pedestrian, now known as Art Stroud, which could not be accounted for just after the accident happened.
