Alford "Duke" Smith

Alford "Duke" Smith, age 78 of Morgantown, KY passed away Sunday, November 6, 2022 at his residence. He was born on Tuesday, February 1, 1944 in Butler County, KY to the union of the late John Leslie and Beulah M. Fleming Smith. Duke enjoyed racing, gardening, fishing and hunting. Out of those one would claim he told more tall tales than anything was ever caught or killed. Some of the favorite stories told are remembered by his grandkids Trevor and Brooklynn, being how he would see the dolphins jumping over the bridge near his home in Butler County and how he once traveled across the country on a power wing carrying a spare on his back. Other than his parents he is preceded in death by one son David Smith; son in law David Hubbard; great grandson Markus Barks; two sisters Louise Smith and Juanita Hatcher and one brother Nick Smith. 

Alford "Duke" Smith is survived by six children  Karyn Hubbard, Bubba Smith (Valerie), Amy Smith (Andy Johnson), Cheryl Deweese (Andrew), Stephanie Warren all of Morgantown, KY and Tonya Posey of Bowling Green, KY; companion Marcie Hatton of Morgantown, KY; 8 grandchildren; 8 great grandchildren and several nieces and nephews.
