Not sure what to say?

memories are precious

To the Smoot family, I am absolutely sending thought felt prayers and condolences. As an employee at Harris-Stowe State University in the IT department during the time Mr. Smoot was there I worked under him and he was my mentor. Again, you all have my sincerest condolences.

Mr. Smoot was an abiding light for all who knew him. Reading his obit the phrase "abundant life" comes to mind. I hope I can follow his example. Mary Pier, retired HSSU instructor.

I was so sad to hear of your passing. During my employment at Harris-Stowe, you were always so kind, with always positive words to say. You will be missed.

To my dear friend, Ernest Smoot Jr.
I was deeply saddened by the news of your father passing. My heart felt condolences to you and your family.
I'm here if you need to talk to someone.
God Bless You and your family

Condolences to the Smoot Family. Mr. Smoot was the most gracious man. He was a beacon of light for all that encountered him. Janis, there will be difficult days ahead, but know you are never alone, you have the Lord and the light from Ernest to carry you through. Blessings to the Smoot clan.

Ernest was such a kind and loving-hearted man. He had such an infectious smile you just couldn't resist smiling back. I always told Ernest and his adorable wife Janis they are my favorite couple and they always will be. I love Janis and Ernest. He will be greatly missed.

So sorry to hear of the passing of one of the greatest men I knew. What a blessing he was to my husband and I as we matriculated through HSSU. He will be sorely missed. To Mrs. Smoot, Kim,Dr. Diane Smoot and the entire family, we love you guys and you will remain in our thoughts and prayers!
