May his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed, rest in peace. Pat, we know you will rest in eternal peace. We are proud to have had Pat, our brother, in our family, and we are proud of what Pat has accomplished in his lifetime. We are thankful for the care the Christian Brothers and staff have given our brother these last few weeks. We celebrated milestone achievements with Pat: his 50th anniversary in Washington and his 60th anniversary in Beltsville. Pat willingly accepted his assignments and challenges especially at Bethlehem University as Library Director. We all stayed at our brother’s residence several times when we travelled to Pennsylvania. I am especially happy and grateful for all the times that I, my wife Kathy, and our three kids spent with Pat in Pittsburgh. Pat was always at any family occasion to celebrate with them. Pat came to Milwaukee many times: our wedding, the baptism of a child, a Thanksgiving when he was in Illinois, our fiftieth wedding anniversary, to mention a few. I think Pat spent more time with my family and me than he did with the others for which I am very grateful. The family also visited him in Arlington, Virginia. We spent time and celebrated with Pat when he took his vows. He invited my family and me to Philadelphia where we toured all the historic points of interest. Pat took us, his brothers, to Ocean Rest for a weekend. We have many memories of the times and places we spent with Pat. We always enjoyed seeing Pat and knew he was happy to be a Christian Brother. The family often visited Pat when he was in the novitiate in Beltsville. He had a mentor, Brother Rene Sterner, who helped him. When Pat was in high school, he knew he wanted to join the Christian Brothers. When recently I mentioned that to Pat, he would say, “That was a long time ago.” He was right. Sometimes it seems like we would just do our own things. I guess our mother knew we went back there. I took the larger tree and Pat could have the smaller one. One of my earliest recollections of Pat and I playing together was when we would go back in the field of our mini farm and across the creek where we had two favorite trees that we could climb. I want to share some memories of our family’s times with Pat. Francis was the middle name of our grandfather on the Smith side. I wonder if that is the reason our parents christened him Patrick Francis Smith. We were also privileged to have five girls in the family. I am writing this as my participation in the celebration of Pat’s life.
