Keith Smith’s passing has left his family in deep mourning, especially his two sons, Dale and Dean Smith, who are enduring severe hardships as they navigate this difficult time. Keith, who is remembered as a devoted father, had four sons: Levi, Jason, Dale, and Dean. Tragically, the family has faced significant loss over the years; Jason’s life ended unexpectedly, and Levi passed in a vehicle accident, which Dale witnessed firsthand over a phone call. These tragedies have profoundly affected the family, who now grieves the passing of their father.
A GoFundMe fundraiser, organized by Amanda Rosita Rinas, has been established to help Dale and Dean cover travel and funeral expenses. The brothers, who were recently evicted from their home due to fire safety concerns, lack the resources to make the journey to Newfoundland, Canada, where their father’s funeral is set to take place. The circumstances have been especially challenging as they face homelessness, relying on friends for temporary shelter. With limited identification and financial resources, they are unable to afford flights and are planning to drive to Newfoundland, a journey that will require substantial funds for transportation and living costs during their trip.
Support from the community has been heartfelt, with many sharing memories and condolences on social media. Retunda Mitchell Wilson shared, "His life was cut short…we are raising funds for his memorial services…please like, comment, and share this post so we can reach more people who may want to help honor Keith’s memory." Demetrius Lathon offered simple yet sincere words, "Condolences to the family." Other members of the community expressed similar sentiments, including Kimberly Blasingame, who shared, "My condolences," and Lynne House Simmons, who wrote, "I’m so sorry for your loss. 5 children, lord please cover these babies with love." Friends like Brenda D Belcher Barber added prayers, "PRAYING for COMFORT from GOD to his family and friends."
This outpouring of sympathy and compassion has been a source of comfort for the family, who now lean on each other and the kindness of others during this challenging time.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Keith Smith’s family, and we wish them strength and peace.
