I worked with Mr. Smith around 1964 while working for the Wayne County Road Commission (Parks Division), working along Hines Drive. We worked for the foreman Jim Westfall. I worked mainly on the grass cutting crew and Mr. Smith, who was know as Yogi, drove truck. I so enjoyed working with Yogi, who was a very soft spoken gentleman.
