Bobby you were one of a kind. Just remembering all the nights our gang would hang out on your corner during the summer--and winter watching everyone circle town--those were the best days. You would always be working in your shop taking about racing. I think everyone loved to hear your stories. Have not talked with you in a long time---but still got those waves if I happened to ride by the shop and you were outside. I will miss your waves-----Your little corner will never be the same----GOD SPEED MY FRIEND

I knew Bobby from my drag racing days. He was quite the competitor and very good at what he did. At the track if anyone needed help he would be the first one to pitch in. He will always have a special place in my racing memorys.
Prayers to the family at this hard time...

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family during this difficult time and through the days to come. Bobby was quite the character! No matter how long it had been and no matter where it was, he would always go out of his way to speak "Hey Boy". So many stories, history and knowledge have left this world with him but the memories will remain.

Our hearts are broken, joy has been stolen from us. Bobby Smith was an original, smart , funny and full of poop. Life won't be the same and we'll miss you 'Wildman'

Message from Rachel Morton

I would like to share a comforting scripture from God's Word, the Bible with the family. Isaiah 41:10 says: "Do not be afraid, for I am with you. Do not be anxious, for I am your God. I will fortify you, yes, I will help you, I will really hold on to you with my right hand of righteousness". Please accept my sincere condolences. Always remember God loves you and he cares for you!
