Members of the printing industry have been noting their appreciation for Kip's devoted years to them -- he was a special man beloved by so many. I will miss him dearly. There are appreciations at WhatTheyThink http://whattheythink.com/articles/85685-friend-industry-kip-smythe-has-died/#comments and Printing Impressions http://www.piworld.com/article/longtime-npes-executive-printing-industry-leader-kip-smythe-passes/ He carried the burden of these last years with great dignity and spirit but also a real and sincere concern and enthusiasm for others. Our prayers and thoughts are with everyone in Kip's family and in his circle; he made friends around the globe with his hard work and amazing positive and happy attitude. As one of the PI commenters said "If we were all a little more like Kip, the world would be a much better place."

I'm sad that Kip has left us..very sad in fact. But there is joy as well as I remember a kind soul who was always positive, supportive and life-giving to his friends. I've said this before, I am a better person because of Kip and I know that he had the same impact on many industry friends. He fought a good fight. More importantly, he lived a good life. Please accept my sincere condolences. Kip will be with you the rest of your lives, he will make you smile, encourage you to find the best in people, and remind you that each individual can make a difference.

I would like to express my sincere condolences on the death of Kip. I have known him for many years. Kip was such an exceedingly kind person. When I joined ICC as new (and very green) member, he went out of the way to make me feel welcome and included. He was a very important person in that organization, quietly organizing and leading but never intruding. I will miss him. I wish you peace as you grieve this loss. Kind regards -sabine

Dear Family, It was an honor and a joy to be lucky enough to know Kip on a weekly basis for over seven years here in Cave Creek. Kip and Cathy could light up a room and we spent many many hours having fun together. Kip taught me how to play Texas Holdem too! A true hero in every respect..and always a gentleman. And taught Troy how to be a better golfer! Hard to believe he's not here. Please remember Cathy ...she has been a saint and will need you all more than ever. All our love.
