Jack W. Smith, 59, of Sulphur, Ky passed away on Sunday, March 18th, 2018. Born in Crab Orchard, Ky, Jack lived and worked in and around Louisville for much of his life.

He is also survived by three sons, Travis, Bobby, and Jonathan as well as Travis's fiancee Alisha Drake, Bobby's wife Christina Smith, and Jonathan's husband Sean Doumas.
