SMITH: Herbert Ernest Stuart

Dad, Pa, Stu, Stuey, Snuffy-you had many names. We said ‘see you soon’ on August 19, 2024. You were surrounded by family and we held you so tight. We miss you immeasurably.

Forever in our hearts, we will never forget you, your wife, Bernadette; your children, Brian, Kevin, Andrea (Frank), Lisa (John) your grandchildren, Loren, Harlen, Jackson, Grace, Madison; your sister, Mary; a few special in-laws, friends, cousins, nieces and nephews.

Please join us October 16, 2024 for the visitation from 1000-1130 am at St Peter’s Roman Catholic Church Goderich, ON followed by his funeral at 1130 and celebration of life to follow.

In lieu of flowers please consider a donation to Alzheimer Society of Huron Perth or Rotary Hospice Stratford Perth.

Stu was born in 1937. ,He lived with his parents Ernie and Letta Smith and sister Mary on a farm in Morris Township.
Stu moved to Goderich in 1959 to work at Sifto Salt Mine. He spent 50 plus years working at Sifto Salt and Champion repairing heavy equipment.
Stu lived on a farm with his family in Ashfield Township from 1963 until he returned to Goderich in 1989.
Stu loved tinkering, repairing everything, spending time with grandkids, playing the piano, going to dances, and talking and socializing with everyone he came across. He had the biggest smile, biggest heart and only good things to say about everyone.
Our world misses dad, Stu and Pa. See you soon. Forever in our hearts.❤️❤️❤️
