Smith 2019 [Excerpts from email between Kenneth Howard Passe, Jr. and Barry Allen Smith, 4 December 2019] "I don't have much information about Uncle Art and Aunt Patty. We visited them twice, I believe, when they lived in a trailer park in Fresno, CA. I have some photos of the visits, stashed somewhere. At that point, they were quite old, but Art was still the big story teller and Patty was near quiet as a mouse, which is the way I remember them. Over the years, when I was a kid, he gave me a few "outdoors" type souvenirs, an antler candleholder, a knife and a compass. I've still got them. All you had to do was say "hello" and he would carry the rest of the visit! Art was a civilian employee working as an airplane mechanic, first at Wright-Patterson near Dayton and later at Hill AFB in Utah, during what I know of his working career. Patty died in December 1987 in Fresno. I happened to be in the area (actually for a memorial service), a few months later, so I drove from the Bay Area to Fresno (200 miles?), to visit with Uncle Art. I had no contact information for him and, as it turned out, after Patty's death, Art had moved to Spokane, WA, to live with his brother (don't know the brother's name). So, I had missed him. I never heard any more from him".
