In loving memory of cyril arthur smith who sadly passed away on the 4th of february 2006 aged 83 years old. he worked hard all his life as a boiler man in west bromwich where he was born and spent his life raising his six children with wife freda. The last five years of his life he battled with motor neurone disease which affected everything he did in his life. He was strong through out. When diagnosed with it in january 2001 the doctors gave him 18 months but he stayed with us for an extra five years which we were extremely grateful for, tho it was hard to watch him suffer the way he did. At the end he caught phenumonia and gave up his battle surrounded by his wife, sons and daughters.

He worked hard all his life to provide for his family. For a family man he was indeed but with 6 children and 14 grandchildren he had little choice...
He was a man of few words but those he did speak were very wise. He was a very clever man who used to say he was "the human calculator" and we believe he was. He also had a comical side which he brought out mainly for the grandchildren to keep them entertained and he never failed to do so...
He was a huge fan of "the baggies" (WBA), snooker and darts.
He meant everything to his family, loved by us all very much and missed every single day... Forever in our hearts love you Husband, Dad,Grandad and Great-Grandad xxx
