Harry Floyd Smith
August 6, 1937 ~ January 30, 2015
Harry Floyd Smith, 77, of Grand Junction, CO, passed away January 30, 2015 in the care of HopeWest Hospice and Palliative Care in Grand Junction. He leaves behind his four children, six grandchildren, and countless friends in the community.
Harry was born in Brooklyn, New York, August 6, 1937. He was raised Jewish and continued his life in Grand Junction with a passion for the Jewish culture. He lived a very eventful life, partly due to the circus he joined as a child and the following 20 years he spent in the Army. He was a strong-willed man, never shying away from telling it how it is. But his intensity was matched by his genuine love that he shared with everyone. His friends were considered family and visitors of Grand Junction always had a place to stay at his home. You could find Harry having coffee in the evenings with his friends at the Country Kitchen before it closed. Harry was a very talented mechanic but when he wasn’t working, he was hunting, fishing, raising his horse, playing with his dogs, and, of course, being a father and a grandfather.
Harry is survived by his daughter, Desiré Rosa-Miranda, and her three children: Ruben, Rayleen, and Julene; son Joshua Smith and wife Harley with their child, Dominik; son Jaison Rosa-Miranda Smith; and son Jerame Rosa-Miranda and wife Chelsea with their children, Jakiah and Malikye.
There will be a graveside service Wednesday, February 4, 2015 at 1 pm at the Mesa Cemetery in Mesa Colorado and all are invited. The family would also like to extend a special thank-you to HopeWest Hospice for their never-ending care and support. Memorial contributions may be made to HopeWest at 3090B North 12th Street, Grand Junction, CO, 81506.
