Dr. William Smith Jr.

I will always remember Bill as an excellent orthopedic surgeon and a true Christian gentleman. Unfortunately I will be in Atlanta and will miss his service.

Dear Lee, so sorry to hear of your dads passing. I worked with your Dad for many years on the ortho floor as an RN. He was the finest Christian man with such kindness and respect for everyone. He was so respected by his patients and peers and was always had a kind word in his daily rounds. It was such a fun time but hard work on the ortho floor but we all pulled together and Dr Smith was always the first to thank you for your dedication to taking care of his patients. After we both retired...

To Ann and David, my condolences to you and your family. Praying for you.

Ann,

I am so sorry for the loss of your father. My deepest sympathies to you and your family.

Dear Ann, I was sorry to read about your Dads passing. I hope all your memories and knowing that your parents are together again will help you at this time. Dina Ochs, ( your old neighbor across the street on Mundon Way) Blairsville, Georgia

To me, Dr. Smith personified the words used to described him in his obituary "...patience, tolerance, kindness, forgiveness, modesty and generosity..." Fruits of the Spirit and a life lived in Christ. I know how much my parents thought of Dr. Smith and how they respected him as a physician and a friend.

Lee and Ann, my heart goes out to you both. I regret not knowing about your mother's passing in 2012. I rejoice however knowing your Dad and Mother are together again. What a glorious...

I was one of Dr. Smith's first patients in Tallahassee. He set my broken arm when I was 7 years old, treated my dislocated ankle when I was 14 and looked after my aching back when I was in my 40's. He was a kind and compassionate doctor who always made me feel better, both physically and spiritually. He will be missed. My sympathies to his family and friends.
