Hi, I’m Vernon Smith III. I’m doing this GoFundMe on behalf of my dad, Vernon Smith II, who passed on 11/25/2025. I found out a week later on the 2nd of December. I don’t know what happened to my dad, but I’m asking for help to lay him to rest. As the days get closer to the burial date, I’m asking if you all can help me. As the oldest child, this is my first time trying to put a funeral together, and I’m very hurt because I lost my father! Thanks in advance!
