steven n fettig's Jitterin' Thoughts

I wish I were able to come up with some sort of quirky story at this hour. Between Pat and I, there are certainly a good share of them. Tonight we honored Pat Weiss in a small retirement party. For a person who has been a part of my life for more years than not, it is not easy to talk about the finality of knowing he's not coming through my door one time or other to ask me whether or not I finished something we talked about me needing to do. For all the times I have been irritated, there have been far more where I was not. I appreciated his experience, his advice, and especially his willingness to listen.
Pat, there are far too few words to say how much your presence will be missed. I hope that your days are filled with more good memories and especially the kinds of things that bring a smile to your face and a laugh to our ears.
