The Day the Music Died – August 19th, 2018

My sweet Patrick was killed by the front and back tire of a car on August 19th, 2018. I was madly in love with him. I died with him that day. I’ve never been the same. Being Patrick’s human Dad was the greatest Job that I’ve ever had, or will have. My life was about making him happy. As I’ve written many times, I would’ve moved mountains and swam across oceans for him.

I’ve made a lot of new friends in the past year and have been reacquainted with old ones. A lot of people have asked me “Who is Patrick and what happened to him?” – Some even call me Patrick not realizing that anything happened.

This video is about my life with Patrick, his death, animal rescue in Puerto Rico, Patrick Swayze (yes, Patrick Swayze), and the introduction of rescue dog, BabyLady. The message is sad, moving, inspiring and ends up on a big up note. It was published on October 17th, 2018, sixty days after Patrick was killed.

Sincerely, Scott Smith, Patrick’s human Dad.

The Greatest Love Story In A Thousand Years
