Dear Kim, I'm so sorry that you lost your dad. You were lucky that you had a father who loved you. I know just how much you will miss him, but I know he was happy living with you and your husband and kids He was lucky to have a sweet daughter like you to take care of him. No friend was ever as good to me as you were and I am proud to call you my friend. Your dad was a nice man and so were his brothers. I remember when you took me with you to go and visit your Grandma Smitt. She was a very sweet lady. If you need me I am here for you. Call me or leave me a message on Facebook.
Love Your Friend,
Lisa Marie McDonald

Uncle "Snap", I loved all the times you would take us camping for the weekend, especially down to Meramec so we could go floating. From what I was told, you have the nickname "Snap" from Snap, Crackel and Pop cereal. I never did figure out which brothers were supposed to be Crackel and Pop. Thanks for the memories at the tavern The "Smitt" traditions of family and love will always shine through in your daughter, grandchildren, and great grandchildren.

There are so many stories to remember. The best remembered story was about his missing ring finger. Every time someone asked what happened to it there was always a different answer. To this day I'm really not sure what the TRUE story was. Perhaps Snap had forgotten too! Snap was the go to brother. If you had a problem or wanted advice he was the one to see. He gave Ron and myself advice about our engagement. Ron was about to leave for the service. We wanted to know if we should get engaged before he left for Germany or wait until he returned. All he said to us both was ''wind is to fire as absence is to love". So we got engaged before he left. So absence in our case made our love stronger because we have been married 45 years and still going strong. It will be difficult now because the go to brother has gone on. We shall always love and miss you. May God bless you. Love, Ron and Charlotte. P.S. tell Carrie we love and miss her.

in honor of Norman.

A bit of Dupo legend and history has gone. Thank you Snap for caring for us young folk and for those fantastic lunch eats!
