On December 8th 2022, at the young age of 96, George Rutherford Smith (Smitty) passed away peacefully with his family by his side. He is now reunited with his beautiful bride, Margaret (Wallace) Smith. Smitty was a loving father to Lane (Cathy), Karen (Joe), and Keith (Vicki), a cherished Papa to Matthew (Alecks), Nolan, Deanna (Greg), Laurel (Brennan), Ryan (Mary Anne), Devon (Tori), Karalyn (Joseph), Dana (Dennis), Samantha (Nicholas), and a great grandfather to Edison, Langley, Rayna, Warren, Daxon, Lincoln, Archie, Bauer, Emma, Remy, Scarlett, Julian, Evelyn, and Belle.
Smitty was military/government for over 20 years before retiring. After retirement he spent much of his time square dancing with Margaret, upholstering furniture, watching baseball, and telling Dad jokes. His humour and loving demeanor will be greatly missed by all.
Thank you to all the staff at Arbour Trails for taking such great care of Smitty.
Special thanks to the staff at Guelph General Hospital. The care he received while in the ER and 5W was outstanding.
