to all of the family and Mucker's good friend Dotty Cook. This message is from myself but most importantly his best fishing buddy Todd Hoppe. The time they spent together in this or that fishing hole and ice fishing on Eagle Lake will always be in Todd' best experiences ever. How great it was that Todd was home on Memorial weekend and one of the first things he did was go visit his good buddy.That's pretty special since Todd had not been home in 12 years. Todd's best memories are how many sick days at connors emerson he jut had to take...on Mucker"s days off. Do I need to say more ?? We'll miss that sweet man I do believe he was a saint! Our very best wishes to all of the family and dear Dottie. Todd Hoppe and Linda Hoppe.

Dear Dale, Kenny, Ronnie, Glenn and families: I am so sorry for the loss of your Dad. Growing up in the same neighborhood and then seeing Mucka every day at school - created many fond memories that I will cherish forever. I'm guessing my Dad and Jimmy Cough were waiting for him at the "gate" with a cold one in hand and a good joke! My thoughts and prayers are with each and every one of you. Sending big hugs!

To Kens family- especially Glen and Claudette, Jake, Dottie and the rest of the family. We are so sorry to hear of Muckas passing. Our hearts go out to you. We were so fortunate to have Ken as our across the street neighbor for 12 years on Bowles ave! He was funny and kind. He was always busy with some project in the garage. He was always such an inspiration- because he did so much even with limitations- without notice or fanfare! And when he was using his hand lawn mower on his yard- he would come over and do our tiny front lawn as well!! He was an ever present supervisor when Bob was doing a project as well- especially when we were remodeling our kitchen and we took out our wall to put in the sliding glass door! A favorite memory is when Mucka, Glen and Bob worked on Jakes first lobster boat in his driveway. We will be missed. Hugs and God bless💕💕

Dear Dale, Kenny, Ronnie, Glen and families and Mrs. Cooke, So very sorry for your loss and yet, so grateful for times I visited with Mucka either at the house or this last time at Birch Bay where I saw Glen as well. Your Dad was such a central figure in my life growing up, from digging clams to chauffeuring our Dads around Kebo after I got my permit to feeling special when I got to visit Mucka in his "office" when attending Emerson. Your Mom is still part legend in our household for her ability to see my lunch tray still with food in it at Emerson and just a look at me and I was scrambling to sit back down and finish everything and then I could turn in that tray. From the old movies, to the warmth and fun in your house, to the stories your Dad would remember and to everything wonderful I experienced because of your folks, I remain thankful and appreciative. Bowles Avenue will forever by in my heart and favorite memories. Love, Joanne and family

RIP my school custodian of 8 years and then later my neighbor of 24 years. Thank you for the garden fresh tomatoes you left on our fence, and for all the sweet gestures you have made through all these years. You will be missed.

What a great loss to our community! I loved being around him because he was a riot and could always make me laugh, no matter what. Fair winds and following seas to a shipmate, and my thoughts and prayers for the family.

I was very saddened at the news of the passing of Ken (Mucka) Smith. He was an important part of the fabric that is Bar Harbor. I moved back to Bar Harbor a few years ago after decades away. We reconnected, and I was so grateful for his welcoming greeting. In the first months “home” , I took great pleasure in seeing him frequently at Hannaford ‘s , making his way through the store, shopping, but, being stopped in every isle to talk to all his triends. I enjoyed reading the story of his life. “”Thank you for your friendship Mucka and peace to your family ”
