William Trickett Smith

Mr Smith was a man of his words. Thanks again for everything

One of the first things that come to mind when I think of my father is someone who really lived up to his fraternity Theta Chi’s motto. .
Someone who always is there with an assisting hand for the ones he cares about, and strangers alike. To those who sought it out, as well as to those who did not. Never discriminating creed nor race nor economic status. He helped many have a voice, when to them no one would listen.
Omnes una manet nox!

Gute Nacht, gut geschlafen.

He was the best grandfather anyone could ever ask for. Everyone who knew him was in some way touched by his presence. His highs were high, and his lows were low. I will forever remember the corny jokes he will tell, and are weekly trips to Red Robin. Love Always Tristan

Bill was a dear man, a friend, and a teacher. Bill traveled on a path that had pot holes, bumps, dark corners and a great deal of linear light. In his heart of hearts, he was a good man. I have been looking for Bill these last couple of years and not been able to find him. I am so sorry that I could not see him in these last years. He made a great impact on my life with his wisdom, generosity, spirituality, friendship; in spite of the problems along the path. I miss you dear friend; rest...

I was both a college and law school classmate of Bill’s. He and I were both in the same Infantry Basic Officer course at Ft. Benning, Georgia and then at Ft Dix, NJ. During law school we served in the Carlisle army reserve unit. He was a good man. May his memory be for a blessing. Dick Goldberg

Our deepest sympathy to Bill’s family from the members of the John Harris Graduating Class of 1955. Bill added so much to our class and was well liked by all! A classmate and friend, Frances Szivos Fonner

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. I appreciate everything that Mr. Smith did for me.

My HEART is very heavy after hearing of Bill's transition. Bill was a Master at his trade. Thanks Bill, Rest Easy, you will be missed.
