Bart was a "regular" at the Bensalem Township Country Club. He was always a pleasure to deal with and always had a smile on his face. We will miss seeing him at the club. We will keep the McDermott family in our thoughts and prayers. Bart will be missed!

Bart was the most wonderful father in law a girl could wish for. He had a talent for listening, and I know we will all continue to reach out to his spirit for advice and inspiration. He always made me feel special, as he did for everyone whose life he touched. Dad, you will always be with me when we celebrate OUR birthday!
