OBITUARY:
W. A. (Bud) SMITH DIED SUNDAY AFTERNOON
W.A. (Bud) Smith, one of the pioneer farmers of Jones County, living for 37 years in the Neinda community , passed away at his home Sunday afternoon at 3:40, after only a few hours suffering following a stroke of paralysis.
For years the close friends of Mr. Smith greeted him as "Uncle Bud" and that serves to express the kindly feeling all had for him during his life.
Mr. Smith had been in gradual failing health for several years, but continued to go about his farm, and even in the morning before his death, he had been out in some part of his fields, in his car and soon after returning to the house. About 9:00 A.M. he was stricken, and death came at 3:40 P.M.
He was born in Gipson County, Tennessee, November 29, 1859, and at the time of his death, he was 75 years, 4 months and 9 days of age. In 1865, he with his parents moved to Stoddard County, Missouri, and ten years later they came to Texas and settled in the Eastern part of the state, perhaps Delta County. In 2890 he came to West Texas and stopped in Brown County. Mr. Smith often spoke of being the first person to use an emigrant car over the Frisc railroad and at that time the terminus of the road was at Comanche, Texas.
It was in 1898 that Uncle Bud came to this county and settled in the Neinda community, which place continued to be his home, except about three years that he lived in Hamlin. He had a nice place on Central Avenue, but the call of the farm was too much and he returned to it.
Those who knew Mr. Smith best will remember him as a man of pleasantry, always possessed with an optomistic manner, leaving behind him the same spirit with his fellowman.
In early life he became a member of the Baptist Church and throughout the years impressed himself as being a Christian man and citizen of the highest rank.
Funeral services were conducted at the Neinda Baptist Church, Monday afternoon by Rev. Will Webb of Lamesa, Texas. The body was in charge of the Barrow Funeral Directors and interment was in the Neinda Cemetery.
Those surviving are the wife, and one daughter, Mrs. Perlor Smith and her five children, Roy and Arvid Smith and Mrs.
Bill Gainer all of Sweetwater, and Thelbert Smith of Big Spring, and Mrs. Buddie Davis of Odessa. Two step-sons and two step-daughters also survive, their names being Vaughan and Alvis Wilcoxson of Dallas, and Mrs. Floyd Hallmark of Mt. Trumbull, Arizona, and Mrs. Richard Young of Hamlin. There are four great grandchildren.
The picture of Bud was in my Grandmother's box of pictures. I took the picture of the headstone in 1996.
