Everyone just knew the Skinny, Quick to Laugh Owner of the "Lil' Arrow Shop"  as Junior. His Full name was Charles Smith Jr., and he Went Home To the Lord in His Sleep on Tuesday, November 6th at 2:00 a.m.
   God Bless his Heart, he had suffered for quite a while with the Medication and Cures for Brain Tumors. We never discussed it much, he was always just Happy to have some Friends drop in his little Archery Shop. I wont go into the History of the Shop, as I dont know that much. I believe he and his Brother started it, his Mom and Dad, that lived about 50 feet away, were always either in the Shop, or sitting on their Porch Swing just inside their garage to Wave at Everyone coming and going.
    Junior was a Good Friend to Me, and Sponsored several of the Local Archery Competition Shooters.
     I Pray for his Family and  ALL  the Friends whose Lives he touched, and there were  MANY  of Them!! People from  ALL  over the State and some from Other States came to Junior to either Buy, Set-Up, or Fix their Bows. He was a Fine Man, a Good Friend, and Will be Sadly Missed.  :pray:  
          God Bless you Junior, Now You dont have to Suffer with that Nasty Disease Anymore!!
  Now the Angels have a Fine Archer Among Them.
         A Friend That Misses You Already,
             Bill "Shakes.602" Kunkel

What a tribute to have left such a legacy.

We should all live so well as to die remembered and loved.

Prayers for family and friends to rejoice in his release for trial and to find peace and strength to carry on.
The words "Child" and "terminal illness" should never share the same sentence! Those who care-do, others question!
