Bobby Louis Smartt, age 58, died at St. Thomas Hospital. He was a native of Lincoln County, TN, but had spent the last 30+ years in Lewisburg. He was the son of the late Robert Smartt and Mardell Smartt.
Bob was the Owner and General Manager of WAXO 1220 AM, FM and WAXO TV in Lewisburg. He was a graduate of the Tennessee Institute of Broadcasting. He was instrumental in raising over a million dollars for various civic groups, school groups and charities over the past 20 years. The Lewisburg Elks Lodge named him "Citizen of the Year" in 2012. Bob was a devoted member of the Berean Baptist Church where he also played piano and was the church videographer. According to his daughter Jeanne Kay, "It's a great day in Heaven."
Bob was a unique individual, never met a stranger. Something that Bob looked forward to each & every year was the opening of Dove hunting season, one of the very limited days that he would take off of work. His presence will always be missed by one & all both at WAXO and in Marshall County.
