Chris 'Smitty' Smith

What terrible news. Smitty helped me with so many projects. If there were multiple replies to a question, I always went with Smitty's because they worked every time.

Smitty, I wish you a smooth journey to the other side.

Thank you, @Richard Schollar, @MrExcel (Bill) and everyone else who loved, was helped by, and remembers Smitty. He especially admired you so much, Bill -- glad you were there for him in his final moments, and that he was home with his family, surrounded with love.

I went on a long bike ride through the countryside today #ForSmitty -- this picture is by a shallow stream with lots of green that I passed by. I also tweeted a couple pics in his honor.

@WebVixn, I will remember him every time I admire the great outdoors, as well as often when I work with Excel for the great tips he passed along. He was/is (because his words are still there) a great #Excel trainer and Help writer. I also think about YOU every time I sing because we had so much fun singing together

@MrExcel, thanks for your nice article

Walk / Ride / Run #ForSmitty This Week

I've often seen the top part of that picture, but never the whole thing! I loved @Smitty like a brother, and his wife has a special place in my heart too -- as does their daughter.

I have been away for a few days and am very saddened to see such a thread on my return. I had a number of interactions with Smitty over the years in relation to the operation of the MrExcel forum and he was always very helpful. He will be greatly missed by many. My sincere condolences to Smitty's family!

Thank you Richard for letting one of his other 'families' know about his plight.

For myself, there will forever and always be a hole in the Excel community with the loss of Smitty. If you met him you would know instantly that you have never met a kinder and genuine soul. I'm proud to have called him my friend. Everyone who met him had a positive Smitty Story - everyone.

Well said, Zack, and thank you! There's a hole in my heart. Your kind words and the words of all the folks he connected with really do soothe our broken hearts. So appreciated!

Smitty was one of a kind. I remember our "conversations" in the Lounge and emails during his stay in San Diego and later in Colorado. Conversation was rarely about Excel, but more about his daughter, wife and cats. He loved his family very much. Love you too Smitty! A Hui Hou
