Martin R Smith passed away on February 22, 2019 in his home, surrounded by his loving wife and 4 adult children. He leaves behind not only his immediate family and wife but grandchildren and great grandchildren as well. Martin was a published author and has left his footprint in the literary world. He had a great love of the written word but that did not compare to the love he had for his grandchildren and great grandchildren. Martin will be missed but never forgotten. Rest in peace.
