Not sure what to say?

Pat, I just heard of Smitty's passing. I'm so sorry. You are in my thoughts. I feel lucky and blessed to have known "Smittzy". He believed in me when no one else did. I'll never forget him for that.
I know he's keeping an eye on us all. God bless you.
Bob and Mary Jude Moffat.

Pat,
Our heartfelt sympathy is extended to you and your family. We will keep you in our prayers this Christmas Season.

Pat;
Our thoughts are with you in this time of sorrow. I have often wondered how Smitty was getting along, since it's been quite some time since I left Patterson.
John and Carolyn Olsen

Pat, we are deeply saddened by Smittys passing, he was a great man, who enriched every life he touched. His body was the only thing on this
planet that he couldn't fix, but he gave it his best.

Richard was a hero. He suffered through much illness, yet never gave up. He was steadfast and true to his family, his work and his God. I am proud to be his sister and mourn his passing as a great loss, not only to me and my family, but to all of those who worked and played with him.
From our childhood in Brooklyn, our adolescence in Carmel and our adulthood, separated by miles and work, we were always, always aware of our bonds. We fought and we loved each other. I will miss him...

Pat, Bob and I and our family are saddened by Richie's passing. We knew him many, many years, and we were also neighbors. What Bob couldn't fix Richard could. You and Richie are in our prayers. The Kent Cliffs Bennett Family. Bob and Helene Bennett

Pat, We are so very sorry to hear about Smittys passing. He was the most wonderful and kindest person anyone could have as a friend. You and your family will be in our thoughts and prayers.

Pat, Smitty was a great man and a master at his work no matter what he was doing. I have learned some much from Smitty over the years, especially all of the things that you can do with dental floss. If you found floss in a dental unit in an office you knew Smitty was here. I always enjoyed our cups of tea. We will miss him. Love Tim & Janie O'Brien

I've known Smitty for so many years and most all of my memories were laughing ones. Always a smile, a laugh, a hug. Always good things to say. He will be greatly missed by all. Much Love to you and your family at this very difficult time.
