Robert Smith, 64, of Salina, passed away on Monday, May 3, 2021. He was born June 28, 1956 in Buffalo, New York.

He had many jobs and adventures in his life. Growing up in a military family he moved a lot as a kid, at 16 he moved to Brooklyn by himself. He soon took to the open road quick driving a semi for most his life, and riding his bike just as much. He eventually needed a new challenge and created Bobs Taxi in the early 2000s and was very successful until 2008. Later in life he joined a fellowship of Christians called Brothers in Blue that went into prisons to help and guide anyone that asked.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Thomas and Nancy Smith; wife, Glenda Ann Smith; and brother, Matthew Leroy Smith.

Survivors include his children, Crystal Ann Frank of Salina, Robert Thomas Smith of Leavenworth; brother, Thomas J. Smith; sisters, Cathy A. Noll and Tina L. Robinson ; and four grandchildren he adored more then anything Meghan J. Frank, Eric A. Frank, Thomas E. Lunschen  and Judah M. Hunter.

He was a man that would give you his last dollar, hours of his time, always lend a ear without asking anything in return. Humble and honest that worked his entire life to help and take care of the ones he loved. He will be missed by many… and forgotten by none.

At the end he was in severe pain every hour of the day, just remember he is no longer in that pain and he is finally at peace with his wife and family that left before him.

We love you Bob.
