Brian Clement Smith born in Astoria, NY on November 23, 1937 was taken to heaven by our Lord
and Savior on May 28, 2021.
Brian is survived by his devoted wife, Linda, who stood by his side throughout 58 years of
marriage; always as his number one fan. He leaves his four adoring children, Dara (Drohan) and
her husband Billy, Brian Quinn and his wife Denise, Kira (Gluckman) and her husband Nick, Terry
and his wife Maite.
He will watch over thirteen of the luckiest grandchildren to have had their Papa in their lives as
long as they did; but certainly not long enough. Quinn, Bryn, Kylie, Shane, Braden, Cade, Bryce,
Megan, Erin, Shaye, Lauryn, Camryn and Brian Trey will always have an angel looking over them
throughout their lives.
A teacher and coach to thousands. A quiet mentor. When he spoke, he was listened to. Brian
affected the lives of so many – leading them with his passion for winning, belief in family and love
of Jesus.
A devoted Catholic, Brian was involved with his parish, St. Anastasia, as a volunteer, and
member of the Knights of Columbus. He was a Veteran of the US Army Reserves for six years.
A Funeral Mass of the Catholic Church will be held at St. Anastasia on Saturday, June 26, 2021
at 10:00 am.
St. Anastasia Catholic Church
407 S. 33rd Street
Ft. Pierce, FL 34947
