I am sending out a special prayer for Turtle and the rest of the Smith Family. I have known Jess and Turtle for over 14 years sharing many memories with them. Altough I had only meet Mr. Smith a few times, he was always a polite sweet man. I just lost my father a few days ago and my heart goes out to all of you. May you all find the peace and comfort that God can bring in this time of your loss and sorrow. Becky, Turtle, Jess, Mouse, Mark and Nikki as well as Gina and Ashley and all of his grandchildren and family, my prayers and thoughts are with you. God bless you all and may Mr. Smith rest in peace.

In friendship love,
Sharon Walton

Ms. Becky, Nicky, Sons and Ms Edie

Sharing in your sorrow
with love and friendship.

Weep not for me though
I am gone into that gentle night.
Grieve if you will,
But not for long upon my soul's sweet flight.
I am at peace, my soul's at rest
There is no need for tears.
For with your love I was so blessed.
For all those many years.
There is no pain, I suffer not,
The fear now all is gone.
Put now these things out of your thoughts,
In your memory I live on.
Remember not my fight for breath
Remember not the strife.
Please do not dwell upon my death,
But celebrate my life.
