A note from Wiz

Hi Bill:

What a wonderful tribute to your brother, Pat.  It is so like you to do this.  You have always had a warm and loving heart for people.

Memories, Memories.  I remember Wally taking me on a trip to Sturgeon Bay, 60 some years ago, to meet his cousin Marion, husband Ott, and family.  As we walked thru the door I noticed many little heads peeking out from every corner in the kitchen and living room.  Marion invited us to noon dinner and all the little heads became little boys and girls sitting properly at their places, and they made room for us at that huge table in the kitchen.  Two more made no difference.  Years later, my son Bud spent many a happy hour with all those Schmidt kids, who are now grown and have kids of their own.  And, now I am a 96 yr. old enjoying my grandkids, Laura & Bill.

Pat is now in his mansion with God, where there is no pain, no sorrow, no tears.  He is at peace, and we will all meet again when it is our time to go.  Pat will always be remembered with love and all the memories and contributions he made to this life.

Love Wiz
