To the community,

Tim Smith

Timmy Smith touched so many lives and always made you smile when he entered a room. Timmy loved to make you laugh and also was proud to serve his country. Timmy was always a protector to all.

You will never be forgotten —  Sept. 20, 1982-April 7, 2008.

Forever on our hearts.

Love,
