To this beautiful Smither family.: May Precious Memories of Mr. Smither warm your heart, or bring a smile to your faces.To Arlene (Personnel Dept @ Sears & Roebuck,Sarasota), Mr. Smither, my 6 ft +blue eyed teacher (always including an "r" (WaRshington, waRsh). Thanks for keeping your class @ Sarasota Jr.High "on our toes".

Deepest sympathies to the Smither family on the loss of Mr. Smither. He was my teacher at SJHS, he also photographed me as a cheerleader at SHS, I have the photo that he framed, made me feel as though he was so proud of me. He was a fine Christian man to have as a teacher, and loved that he always encouraged us, in our lives, to achieve our goals in life. So glad to reconnect with his son Lew this past year and to see he had so many grandkids. What a blessing to know that his legacy lives...

Mr. Smither was my favorite teacher at SJHS. He smiled, was kind and made learning fun. He and Arlene became my neighbors 10 years ago when I moved to Lionshead in Bradenton. I was blessed to get to know his wife Arlene and visit Mr. Smither again. He will surely be missed by many students, neighbors, friends and family alike. God speed Lou...
