Johnny Smith...RIP

[reeltime]

I was at a Christmas party in Houston yesterday and just heard the news about Famous, I hate that I missed his services.. does anyone know when and where they were? I would like to pay my respect. Thanks for any info.

They had a memorial for him at San Leon cementary yesterday but the funeral was awhile ago somewhere up around the beltway and 610.If you get ahold of Ruben at Eagle Point ramp and bait camp he can tell you more.

The San Leon Cemetery marquee says a memorial services will be held for Johnny Smith at 11:am on Saturday Dec. 11th.... Also anyone wishing to share a memory or tell a "fish story" may do so at the service.

In Memory:
Johnny (Famous) Smith
"Not how did he die, but how did he live?
Not what did he gain, but what did he give?
Not what was his church nor what was his creed.
But had he befriended those really in need?
Not what did the sketch in the newspaper say,
But how many were sorry he passed away.
