I’m so missing you tonight! The eve of your 7th year gone. Time really does not stand still! You taught me that family is everything and life is more fun if you are silly! I miss our funny Christmas Eve videos we made together and the vacations or just being goofy at home. I miss watching movies with you or sitting outside in the warm summer air. I miss your goofy faces, your crazy jokes and your hugs. I love you pops forever and always!!!!  How I wish you could meet the new Grandchildren! 

I didn't know they still had your book up.I love and miss you with all my heart,to talk to you about everything. You were the only man in my life other than my sons, so you were very important to me. Love laughing with you. Happy Birthday, Father's day. Love you!

Dad, I miss you.  I often think of things you would say if you were here about this or that.  I know you would've loved where Falling Skies has gone and the same with Haven.  I thought of you during the Doctor Who death and regeneration.  You ARE remembered, in private thoughts, spoken words, memories and pictures.  I love you and one day we'll be reunited and can laugh together again.

They are taking your guestbook down soon dad just let you know I'm thinking of you I love you I miss you everyday pops I love you.

This is the last day we can post on here. Dad I think of you everyday and My heart hurts everyday. You will be forever in my prayers, heart, and memories. I miss you so very much and those stupid SCI FI shows. I saw the Lone Ranger for you and you would have loved it. The steam Engine was so cool. I love you Pops and miss chatting with you about all the shows on TV , movies and just stuff.

Dad,
 I miss you more than anyone could know. Mom, me and Paige had a very hard time yesterday. We visted your grave today and placed a cross on your grave for you. I wanted to talk to you so bad about that SCI-FI movie we watched the other night called Fin! Dad you would have love it because it was so stupid. LOL. I miss talking to you so bad dad and watching a movie with you, sitting on the patio and drinking coffee and discussing the news. I love you Paps I will miss you always and always. Wait for us we will be there with you. Love your daughter Vicky. <3

The pain is obvious that this family feels without you here making us laugh. Love you Papaw!

Dad, I will always love you and I miss you so much.cheryl

I'm so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and Prayers are with you always. RIP Uncle Tommy

Though I know you wish he was still here, now you have a special angel watching over you.

To the Smith family,  we are so sorry for your great loss.  Joyce you and Tom were able to spend over fifty years together.  All of your children, grandchildren and their families were so fond of Tom.  Keep all of the good memories in your hearts and minds forever.

My dear brother,
I'm sorry you had to leave us and I'm going to miss you so very much. I enjoyed talking with you on the phone and I was looking forward to giving you a big hug and tell you I love you with all my heart. I know you knew that and I know you loved me too. I will always and forever be your sis, and I'll never forget the nickname you gave me years ago. You called me "Shag"; I'm going to miss that.
Now you are with momma, Irene and James, and that comforts me.  Love Always, Shag.

Papaw,
Thank you for all of the memories you have given us through out the years. Some of my best childhood memories are around you. You'll never know how much I loved to come to your place on Christmas morning every year or just stopping by for a bit to just say hi. You taught so many of us the importance of family and traditions and I will cherish that forever. There's so many things that I will miss about you I can't even begin to name them all, but the one thing I know I'll miss the most is every time I left and gave you a hug bye, you always grabbed me and pulled me in closer and never forgot to tell me you loved me. That will be with me forever. Papaw you will always be missed but never forgotten. Until we meet again in Heaven,

Your grandson,
Bushman

Uncle Tommy, some of my happiest childhood memories were from the times I spent in your home.  My childhood dream was to live next door because you made watching a movie an exciting adventure by bringing the tv outside and turning our connecting lawns into an outdoor theater.  You encouraged celebration; life was never dull, and you turned the ordinary into the exceptional. After reading many of the entries and posts, I came to realize what I've always known; you too are exceptional.  As a father, I can't think of any better; as an uncle, you were the best. Your grandchildren and great grandchildren express in pictures and words a respect and love for their "papaw" that is rarely seen in today's world. You have set the bar pretty high for dads and that's a great accomplishment.  
Thank you for making us laugh, and giving joy to all those who were blessed to know you.

Dear Sandy and Family,
I am deeply sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. My heart smiles when I think about childhood memories with you all. Your Dad made our summers so much fun! May his smile live on in all of you.

Carol and family, Words cannot express my sorrow for your loss. Through my years of knowing you, you have let me into your family and shared your joys, worries, sorrows and memories. Soon your family became my family. I learned what a wonderful, loving, caring, funny man and huge Reds fan Thomas Smith was. I learned that he and Joy loved eachother so very much and that his daughters, grandchildren and great-grandchildren meant the world to him. I learned he found a great friend in his son-in law, Tim. I learned that he loved to find laughter in just about every moment and loved to live life. I learned Thomas is the kind of man any daughter or son would be proud to have as a father. I learned all this and so much more without ever meeting him. I learned this through Carol's eyes and heart. Although I never met him, I feel as though I have. I grew to love him as family, as I did the whole Smith family. You are all in my heart, thoughts and prayers. Thomas may you rest in Everlasting, Heavenly Peace. You will be missed everyday. God Bless you all.    "Memories remain."

To Carol and Family
Sending my deepest condolences and prayers for the loss of your beloved father .
Please let your Mom know that she is in our prayers.

Tom,
     I think one of the things I'll miss most is how you used to "celebrate" a person coming to visit.  "Jeff! How you doing buddy? - haven't seen you in a while"  You were genuinely happy to see a person come thru the door.  It was always a very sincere expression and a simple illustration of how much you enjoyed life and family.  I'll miss your corny sayings, your funny faces (not a mystery where your daughter gets it) and, yes, even our heated political debates - I hope you never took them personally.  I'll also miss tagging along when you and Tim went "rolling" on a new adventure.  You will be very dearly missed by a wonderful family you loves you very much. 
Love, Jeff

Carol & Family,

I am holding you all in my PRAYERS! I pray you find strength, peace and comfort in wonderful memories. You now have a very Special Spirit Guide to love, protect, guard and guide you until you are all reunited in Heaven above surrounded in Angels Love! 

God Bless You,

Carol and Family, My deepest sympathy for your loss. My prayers go out to you.

Dad,
 Thank you for all the wonderful childhood memories you gave me, and all the wonderful memories as a women you gave me and my children. Thank you for all the stories you told all the movies you watched with me, how to be a good roller coaster rider, all the vacations and how to be silly and just have fun. You were the rock and foundation of this family. Thank you for everything you did for me, you mean the world to me dad, you always did and always will. I will miss you until we see each other again, I know we will because you will be waiting for us. I love you forever Dad, Love your daughter, Vicky

Papaw, 
   I have so many memories of you from growing up around your home. The silly faces, the excitement of a new TV, and how proud you were of your Christmas decorations. I'm going to miss you so much. I'm really glad I was lucky enough to have such a wonderful grandpa. You'll be in my heart forever.

My deepest sympathy's to the Family of Thomas Smith! May god comfort you during this time of sorrow! May all the wonderful memories bring some peace!

Dad,
 I will miss you with every breath in my body. Your stories , your laugh and smile, your goofy faces, and most of all your love. You got me dad and you always believed in me. You gave me strength when I needed it and a lift when I was down. From fixing my bike, to listening to my music, and watching movies and eating a block of Cheese. You were our light in the dark and our path to family. I love you dad.

I will miss you papaw. I will always remember how special you made Christmas for all of us and those trips to myrtle beach. I will miss how you could wheel and deal and most of the family would take you shopping with us because you knew how to get a deal. You loved to spend 3hrs in a store (That is where I get it from)  and you loved to stop by a local famer market to find the best peaches or tomatoes. So many little things like this is what makes you special to me. You were so full of life and loved your family so much. My dad will not have is buddy to go roll with and that Makes me sad. I am thankful for the time we got with you and we will never forget you. Part of you will live through me.
Christina Jenson and Family (granddaughter)

Papaw, thank you for all the things you've done for me. For the funny faces and the stories, the laughter and the smiles. You're a part of my heart forever and always, a special place that absolutely no one could ever replace. I'll love you for eternity.

Papaw, 
It breaks my heart to know I'll never see your goofiness, or your excitement for something that you loved, or hear you tell stories again. Most of all I will miss your laugh. Infectious and full of heart and enjoyment. Which describes you perfectly.
Thank you for giving me wonderful memories of my grandfather. 
I love you Papaw

Your Grand-daughter,
Andrea

My condolences to you all and may you be blessed with the wonderful memories to hold near your hearts....RIP Mr. Smith..

To the family of Thomas Smith, May God comfort you during this time of sorrow.  May HE hold your hands and give you rest, and dry your tears.  "Do not cry for me at my grave, I am not here!  I am in the wind and the stars and the clouds above.  I am in my first home, Heaven, with Jesus."

Papal...you made my life so much fun when I was growing up. Going to grandma and papal's house was the highlight of our week. I never wanted to leave when we were there. Thanks for all the wonderful memories. I will cherish your memory everyday that I live. You will always be in my heart.

To the family of Thomas Smith, I'm so sorry for your loss. May you all find comfort in God. God Bless.

Dad,
I will miss your funny faces, your hugs, our talks about our shows and so much more.  So many memories will keep floating before my eyes and it will be hard, but also joyful when the happy memories come by.  Thanks for all you did for me throughout life.  I love you and will miss you always.

Your Daughter,
