Was born in Yuma, AZ to Wallace G. and Ruth C. Smith on August 16, 1946. The family moved to Tucson, AZ when he was a young child and he grew up there. He graduated from Amphitheater High School in 1964, then served in the Army including tours in Korea and Vietnam. He worked as a diesel mechanic at Wyoming Machinery Co. for 32 years.

He also loved to be outdoors, and enjoyed riding motorcycles, reading, shooting sports, gold panning, and loved his dogs.
