Robert Lee Smith is one of the most honorable people I have ever known. We have been friends since the summer of 1965. In all these years when my thoughts were of him it would always bring a smile to my face. He's the only man I ever knew who drove 100 miles to get a hamburger on Banks Street in New Orleans, LA. (True story) I was honored to be counted among his friends. Billy Campbell
