Andrew Smith leaves a legacy as one who lived out his Christian faith and was a fighter to the end.
He died Tuesday at age 25.
But don’t turn Andrew Smith into a cliché. He was more. He made us cry in recent months, but he could also make us laugh.
My favorite Smith story is one I heard last month from Terry Johnson, an assistant basketball coach at Butler. During the 2010 NCAA West Regional at Salt Lake City, Johnson was heading to bed after watching film. He heard a racket next door, where Smith shared a room with Shelvin Mack.
