The University of Toronto immediately offered him a position as a Mathematics Professor, which he held for 37 years until his retirement while also serving at times as Assistant Dean of Graduate Studies and Vice-Principal of University College. Arthur and Anne particularly enjoyed two sabbaticals in Clemson, South Carolina, making many good friends with whom they spent several later winter stays after retirement, playing golf and visiting. Arthur and Anne lived in Toronto until 2010 when they retired to Parkwood Garden Homes in Waterloo. A humble servant, "Doc Sherk" was a long-time member of Banfield Memorial Missionary Church (now Wellspring Worship Centre), taking many leadership roles and being actively involved as a deacon and Bible class teacher for many years. He also served on the Board of Emmanuel Bible College. Professionally, he was involved in the Canadian Mathematical Society, serving as treasurer for 13 years.
