As the youngest of the grand-kids I didn't get some of the memories the older group did, but you made my life unforgettable. Burgerking breakfast with grandma and the gang, leaf house's made for me and my peddle tractor, bringing home the 2 kittens I just had to have. You made me the best play house a kid could ask for, and held on tight when we sat up top of the shed and looked out!I remember when grandma passed how you held my hand and told me I could cry if I wanted and handed me your trusty hanky! You were the best grandfather a girl could ask for and I thank God everyday you were mine! P.S. Give grandma a kiss for me!

Sorry to hear about the passing of Jack. He always brightened our day, on Saturday mornings here at Arby's.

Vacations were always better at Grandpas! No matter how early we got up you would always be sitting there drinking your coffee, when you saw us you would shift in your chair so we could each climb on to a knee (best seat in the house). We could sit there for hours tracing your tattoo and naming our toy horses (Spark Plug and Bologna Ring) Miss you and Love you Grandpa!!

My best childhood memories were at your house. Swimming in the pool, eating carrots out of the fridge, fudge stripped cookies, or club crackers. Looking at your car and tractor collection. And as I got older you bailed me out of a few jams. The best is when you held the ladder so I could break into my parents house where I had locked my car keys and Grandma worrying the whole time. I love you Grampa!!!!

The two finger wave, oreos and milk at the kitchen table, messed up bologna sandwiches, summers at the pool, driving the mini-bike and lawnmower, hiding in the hall closet, sitting the the "backy, back, back" of the station wagon, volleyball in the side yard, getting to the "cellar" from the outside of the house....what a great childhood...Thanks for the memories Grampa Smith. Miss you and love you.
