Glenn H. Smith, II, softly and tenderly made his transition into the arms of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on the evening of April 7, 2021.
Glenn was born in Warwick County, VA, the third of six children born to the late Glenn and Ola Smith. He had four brothers: Leroy (deceased), Parronneau (deceased), Russell, and Gary, and two sisters; Carnie and Deborah.

In addition to his surviving siblings, Glenn leaves to mourn his sisters-in-law: Gwendolyn, Catherine, Alberta (Lenny) and Geri; one Goddaughter, Latoya; Longwood College friends, Milton and Myrtle, and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, other relatives and special friends.
