Not sure what to say?

The crew (Daily Press and Times Herald newspaper carriers of North Newport News) remember him and family very well. He brought joy to the area. Every helpful, he was a father, coach, mentor and great teacher. The Smith, Tyler, Long, and Pair families, as well as the neighborhood remember very well.

Sorry to read about Mr. Smith's passing.
He always spoke as he walked by on Swann Avenue. Most of the time I knew he was an atheletic tennis player, yet now I have learned more about his other pursuits.
North Newport News is getting smaller with the passing of another friend.

I would like to express my deepest sympathy to the family: Mr.Smith was one of the best people i knew, he was the greatest principal. I remember him from Magruder elementary school. He has always had a kind way with him. may god bless and keep him,

It has been more than 30 years since I have talked to Mr. Smith but he is one of the reasons that I love the game of tennis today. He was always trying to teach my brother, Willie, and I the basics of the game while we were just trying to win against him. We never did win against him. I will miss him.

Sharnya and family,
I am so sorry for your loss. Mr. Smith was such a wonderful man. You all will be in prayer.
