    Pat and I were childhood friends in Michigantown. It was a shock to see the news of his passing. I haven’t seen him for years. We used to exchange Christmas cards. May God comfort his family and friends.

    To Dana and the family: We were saddened to hear about Pat. He was a wonderful friend and family man. We had so many great times throughout the years as farmers and friends. Now that we are all in Texas we didn’t know that Pat was ill. We will keep you all in our thoughts and prayers. God is good and will take care of home. Love you all… Ed and Jackie Smith and family.
