Junior Smith

I married Shirley Rudder from Calhoun Falls, SC in January of 1971. My brother and I opened Smith Brothers Memorials, a granite business, in Vesta, GA in 1978. We have two daughters who I am very proud of. They both have gone on to graduate from the University of Georgia and are both teachers.
My oldest daughter, Alicia Rose, teaches economics and world history at Oglethorpe County High School and is married to Bryan Dellinger. I have two beautiful grandchildren: Addie, 5, and Aidan, 11 months.
My youngest daughter, Christy Lynn, was recently married to Lee Walker. She is a middle school math and language arts teacher. They reside in Greenville, SC.
