Thomas W. Smith Jr.

It is with great sadness to announce that Thomas W. Smith Jr. passed away suddenly on February 21, 2026.

Born 11/1/60, Smitty grew up in Rockville Centre and Oceanside. Residing in Cedarhurst, he was the beloved husband of Annmarie and proud father of Thomas.

He served proudly in the United States Marines from 1982-86. He worked for Grumman and LILCO/Keyspan/National Grid in the Gas Department until he retired in 2022. An avid sports fan, he loved the Boston Bruins, Green Bay Packers, Yankees and any hockey team his son Thomas played on. He loved his 69 Cougar and 65 Ranchero, going to car shows whenever he could, looking forward to this coming season.

During his life, he has so many different groups of friends he kept in touch with on Facebook every chance he could. Tom will be remembered for his big heart, love of our Country and his Marines, family and friends. He was so proud of Thomas and was always a fixture at everything he did especially hockey games which he never missed. He was always somewhere in the stands or at the glass, then going over the whole game with Thomas on the ride home.

Please remember life is short and can change in an instant, give your loved ones a hug and think of Smitty.

In lieu of flowers donations may be made to Tunnel to Towers Foundation or St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Tom's memory.
