Irvin Cole Smith Jr.

Dear Mary, David, Misty, and John,
Thank you for all of your kindness over the past few days. I'm so sorry I can't be at the funeral today due to illness.

Irv was a sweet neighbor, although I've only known him and Nancy for about 2-1/2 years. I'm so sorry he worked himself so hard til the end. Will miss him and Nancy both -- Great neighbors.

My condolences to all of you. I'll make sure his hibiscus is well taken care of. Regards to all,

Rest in peace, valiant warrior. Enjoy catching up on the heavenly news with Kris and Irvin. Give my niece, Melody, a hug and a kiss from her Aunt Kandy. I would like to attend the funeral, but there is a 3 weekend conference at First Baptist Church of Jacksonville. I went to the first weekend, last month. This weekend is the second part and the middle of November is the final part of this conference - affiliated with the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors.

Irvin was a sweet, funny and loving companion to my mom. Our family just loved him. He was a wonderful addition to any of our family gatherings. He will be dearly missed. Deepest condolences to his family.

David, Cathy, John, Mary, and Jim, our sincere and heartfelt sympathy for your loss. Irvin was such a warm, kind, humble, and nice man. We all loved his unique laugh and sense of humor. Whenever we saw him, he always welcomed us with a smile and wonderful hospitality. We all remember him quite fondly. Keeping you all in our thoughts and prayers,
The Gouchnours and McDonalds.

I miss Irvin so much. My name is Mike and he was my downstairs neighbor for 20 years I think . R.I.P my friend Irvin.
