It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Jerry Don Smith, who was born Oct. 24, 1952, and passed away Aug. 27, 2025.
Jerry is remembered as a man who was stubborn in spirit, yet possessed a heart of gold.
Jerry spent most of his childhood in Calumet, where he graduated high school in 1970. He took great joy in watching old westerns and watching Family Feud.
