Freeman Holmes Smith III

Dear Michelle and Family Sending you Much love to you all and my deepest condolences. Freeman was a Giant of a Man spreading love and joy where ever he went. That wonderful happy smile brought much happiness to the Boat Group in Stuart. He was always there lending a caring hand to all of us and in particular he was there for Larry and me two novices at boating. Freeman was a loving friend and I will be forever grateful to have been able to share so many special times over the years. ...

When I purchased Snug Harbor in 1989, one of the first people I met in the area was Freeman Smith. We all know what a charismatic individual he was, and every time I saw him, his presence and heart warming demeanor always evoked a big smile. I was sad to learn of his passing, but know that he positively affected so many people throughout the Southern Tier. His love for life and positivity will be greatly missed.

Our family's deepest condolences on the loss of Freeman. As our family travels around the USA to ask believers to pray for the Filipino children overseas, we are blessed to see strong believers such as Freeman being honored for their decades of service in representing what is still good, noble and honorable in this world. May we never forget to "...desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared for them a city."...

"Larger than life" both literally and figuratively hits the mail on the head!! A friend from Keuka to Stuart you lived a good life with many more smiles than frowns and did a lot for others.RIP my friend.
