Hertford, NC ~ Known by many friends as Smitty, or Timmy to family, Timothy Smith was called home on May 21, 2022. He was born in Welch, WVA, lived the majority of his life in the Hampton Roads area, and for the past 8 years, he resided in Hertford, NC.
Tim was loving, kind, and always willing to lend a hand, even to strangers. He loved watching his grandson play soccer, was an avid lifelong Redskins fan, enjoyed Nascar, and liked watching old Westerns. The door to his garage was always open to anyone that wanted to stop by and chat, swap tales, or just share a laugh.
He is survived by his wife of 26 years, Kelly Raunswinter Smith, his daughter Lindsey Smith (Stephen), and his grandson, Parker Olen Smith.
Tim was predeceased by both parents, Bernard Smith and Catherine “Cat” Highberger Smith. He leaves behind 3 siblings, Danny Smith (Vanessa), Robert “Bobby” Smith (Susan), and Deborah “Debbie” Smith Gerlach (Bob), as well as many nieces, nephews, and extended family.
