Mike, as we called him, was nothing special. He was not a stand out athlete. He was not a great student. Yet Mike WAS SPECIAL. He was a leader. It didn't matter what season it was the neighborhood played whatever Mike wanted. He was the leader in the hood. No one made a decision without checking with Mike. We were and still are the only high school kids to have played in the industrial basketball league thanks to Mike. Mike will never grace another basketball court, throw another td pass or hit another home run. That has been my loss. BUT Mike continues to lead I try to live in a way that would please two men both gone from earth : my father and ROBERT MICHAEL SMITH Rest in peace my friend I miss you still.

A memorial from a friend and fellow veteran, Larry Stimeling, 595th Signal Co 1970-71 larrynamvet@yahoo.com  16 Feb 2002
