Mr. Smith died on Thursday, July 2, 2020 at Huntsville Hospital. He was born September 17, 1978, in Mobile County to Burgess D. Smith and Angia Roberts Smith. During college, God placed the call on Brandon’s life to serve Him as a missionary. Brandon’s assignment was to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the people of Morocco, North Africa. Brandon fell in love with the Moroccan people and established many friendships around the world. All who knew Brandon, were aware of his love for his family, friends, snow and the Christmas season, Alabama football, Spanish moss, crawfish and any chance to sing and laugh. Most importantly they knew his love for Jesus Christ. Preceding him in death were his grandparents: Aubrey Roberts, Lorene Oden Roberts and B.E. Smith.
