I have preached for Bro. Smith when he was still in Dayton, KY. He has moved the church now from Dayton, KY to Bellevue, KY, across the river from your fair city. When we remodeled the Dale church, Bro. Smith gave an offering to us for the project. He has been a good friend the last several years. I am glad he maintained his friendship with Elder Shafer, and was there when the family needed him.
