SMITH
(ARTHUR WILLIAM THOMAS)
30.4.1926 - 8.5.2022 Dearly beloved husband of Margaret and very much loved Dad of Cheryl, Lynn, Marie, Susan, Graham and Sally.
He was a respected and admired father-in-law and friend, proud grandad and great grandad to 16 grandchildren and 15 great grandchildren.
Arthur was a beautiful man with great integrity and a strong work ethic as an architect with the Public Works Department for 46 years and was also a tireless volunteer with Apex, Rotary, the Claremont Football Club and the Trigg Island Surf Club. He cared for, and about his family and will be greatly missed by all the many people he met and the lives he touched.
Arthur William Thomas Smith had a long and full life, well lived.
Arthur, you were my husband, my friend and loving companion for 72 years.
I will be simply lost without you. Margaret

SMITH ARTHUR Sincere condolences to Margaret and families on the passing of Arthur. I first met Arthur in 1964, whilst studying Architecture. I worked part time with him whilst a student and 20 years later served with him on The Claremont Football Club Board. He was a man of high integrity, a strong work ethic and a great supporter of young footballers and lifesavers. Ian Oldfield
