Alvy Ray Smith

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. May God be with you. We always enjoyed Alvy & Edith so much. We we blessed richly by knowing them for so many years both in Clovis and Las Cruces.

When my father died in 1971 I was a sophmore at CHS. Mr. Smith was there for me in a very difficult time. My wife and I are saddened at his passing, but we celebrate his full and purposed life. Thanks Mr. Smith.

Condolences to the family. I was a student helper for Mr. Smith and Mr. Franse my Senior year in Highschool. I always had long converstations with Mr. Smith. A humble and very gracious man. When they lived in Las Cruces, my parents would see them around town and would enjoy visiting with them. Mr. Smith would always tell them, "I voted for your daughter.". That made me feel good that he remembered me. The world is a less brighter without Mr. Smith but Heaven has definitely added an Angel. Wishing Every Best Wish to the family in their time of sorrow.

We are so sorry to hear of Mr Smith's passing but know he is in heaven with love ones. We have great respect for him He is a man of God and it showed in his every day life. He will be missed but not forgoten. A blessing to have known Mr & Mrs Smith. Bryce & Nancy Storrie

Lynn & families, you have my most deepest sympathy for the passing of your dad. He was a wonderful man even though I never met him, I can tell that through you. God Bless y'all.

My heart is sad for your loss, and smiling for Mr Smith's new place of residence. It was my privilege to work at Clovis High and attend church with Alvy for several years. He was always a kind and considerate Christ-follower, with a dry wit and wonderful sense of humor. May God make His presence known in a mighty way as you adjust to your new norm and walk with you through the day, weeks, months, and years ahead. Blessings and prayers,

Elaine and I were so sad to learn of Mr. Smith's passing. We had the honor of being on the Clovis High School faculty during his tenure. All three of his kids, Rita, Lynn, and Jerry were outstanding members of the Clovis High School Band during my time as director. Mr. Smith's contributions to thousands of CHS students are beyond evaluation. May God's blessings be with all of the Smith family during this time os sadness.

Mr. Smith was a vice principal in 1974 when I graduated from CHS. Me and a couple of my buddies were assigned to "kidnap" him when the seniors kidnapped the faculty at 4:00 am during senior week. He must have been tipped off, because he was waiting at the door with a cup of coffee in his hand! We always had a lot of respect for Mr. Smith.
