"Vote the ticket".............

H. C. "Bill" Smith, 93, of Ashburn passed away Thursday, April 30, 2015 at his residence after an extended illness.

A United States Army veteran, Mr. Smith was born in Turner County on April 17, 1922 to the late Jesse James and Anna Roberts Smith. He was a member and deacon at High Hill Baptist Church where he served as song leader for 59 years. He was also a member of the Georgia Farm Bureau.

Mr. Smith is survived by his wife, Ouidafa Conner Smith of Ashburn.

Bill Smith was truly a great Christian man and South Georgia farmer.  I always enjoyed visiting with Bill and his lovely wife.  Bill loved the land and the animals that lived on his farm.

Bill was the first died-in-the-wool Democrat I had ever met that no matter the political repercussions, Bill would always "vote the (Democratic) ticket".

It was the first time I had ever heard that term and my first encounter with such ideology in the South.

"Vote the ticket".    What a great way to make America a more fascist state.

Look around America.   You are blind.
