To the family of company 80, Roy Boy truely loved everyone of you, I heard stories almost everyday of all of you. Roy was a dedicated, loving, strong willed, and honorable young man. There are so many unanswered questions, but there is only one truth and that is his true desire, dedication and love to save others. I know you all are hurting as much as any of us are, and I truly see the love and dedication in all of you through him. Thank you for doing all you have for him, and crystal, and the family. There aren't even words that can exspress the dedication and apprecation you continue to show. I am thankful I have gotten to know all of you, and more thankful that he was part of something that completed his life, and gave him an additional family. Thank you for continuing to take care of all of us in the community and may god bless all of you and keep you safe !

He was a very good friend of mine and I know that he is in a better place now but we will still morn the loss. He is gone but not forgotten.

To the parents of Roy, his 2nd family his fellow firefighters, all of you are in my thoughts and prayers. God bless all of you.

Just wanted to express my condolences,thoughts and prayers to the family and friends of Roy Smith III. I remember Roy as a young boy hanging around Co70 with his dad.He was a very nice young boy then and from what I've read and heard about him over the last few days,he grew up into a very nice young man.From what I understand he had a love and zest for the fire service that was strong,and it's so sad he was taken way to early at only 17.May God be with his family and friends as it's quite evident in only 17 short years Roy touched alot of people.

I would like to send my prayers and thoughts out to the family and friends of Firefighter Roy Smith. Hope all goes as best as possible. RIP, Brother. You'll be missed.

Roy touched the hearts of many people, not the least of which were all of the counselors that knew him from Mid-Atlantic Burn Camp. He was a charming boy who had grown into a solid young man. I thoroughly enjoyed having him as a camper. I recall very fondly his beaming smile as he made a phone call from Pennsylvania to tell her that he had learned to ski.
All of our thoughts and prayers go out to his friends and family.

I just wanted to say that I am truely sorry for the loss of our fallen firefighter. I didn't meet him but I can tell he was a very wonderful and bright firefighter. Our prayers and thoughts are with the Smith Family and I will keep all of you in my prayers. Roy Smith III was a wonderful and dedicated firefighter putting his life on the line to save others. May God bless you Smith family and Company 80. The Rothgeb's

Our prayers and sympathy are with the Roy Family and Co. 80. May God be with you all.

On behalf of Hancock Volunteer Fire Department, I would like to pass along our thought and prayers as you lay one of our brothers to rest today. You are in our thoughts.

Also, on behalf of SkillsUSA Maine, we would like to also express our remorse to you as you lose a member of a great organization. When losing a member of SkillsUSA in any state, it hits close to home because we know the type of skills that person had.

On a personal note, I am very sorry for your loss. It hit me hard to read this article, because I knew Roy through SkillsUSA. He was one of the many faces I met when visiting other states; and now knowing he has passed made it all the more real that you meet people from all over and you make a connection with them.

Rest in Peace brother

God be with the family and Company 80. Our thoughts and prayers are with each of you daily. Roy was a classmate of my son.

Our thoughts and prayers are with your department and family!!

our thoughts and prayers are with his family and his company..another brother that will never be forgotten

Chief and Staff,
On behalf of Williston Fire/Rescue our thoughts and prayers go to your department and Roy's family. Nowing that someone so young, with a direction for the future is hard to lose. We all know that on your next tone you will have an extra watchful eye.
Be safe. God speed.
