It is yet again we bow in humble submission to thank God the Father for the life of Brother Smith. In the midst of all the turmoil and sickness that surrounded brother Smith, William as I called him, he always had a smile on his face. I know that God was there to welcome him home. He served his country in the USAF and after that he joined Gods Army as a soldier. I thank God he permitted our families to cross each others path. We will miss you smiling down here, but we will meet you again.
Rest in Peace,
