Randy Smith remembers the late Patrick Hess.

Randy Smith remembers the late Patrick Hess, who in 1950 became New Albany's first pediatrician.

In Memoriam: Patrick Hess

I just learned of the death of Dr. Patrick Hess – Pat, as we knew him, but Dr. Hess to so many, many New Albanians for whom he was their primary care pediatrician.

Pat was truly a man of his generation. Cultured, witty, inquisitive. I of course, only knew him in his “retirement,” and during those years I was privileged to serve him and to call him a friend.
