Springfield Artist Passes Away


Robert E. Smith

October 13 1927 - Febuary 12 2010

His works are described as Bold, Colorful, and Honest. He was known as a man who wanted to make people smile and laugh, as is depicted in most of his art work. A replication of his painting is downtown on Campbell and Walnut. There is a blog dedicated to Robert at roberteugenesmith.blogspot.com. Here are posting of memories and updates of the memorial service to come. May Robert Rest in Peace
