Larry J. Smith, 82, passed away January 11, 2022. He was born March 25, 1939 to the late Emmett and Maxine (Wing) Smith in Indianapolis, IN. He worked 27 years as a diesel mechanic for Pennsylvania Truck Lines in Indianapolis retiring in 1980. He was a member of Connection Point Christian Church, Brownsburg.

The family would like to thank the staff at Independence Village of Avon and Justin and Carmen of Paradigm Health for their kindness and support of Larry.
