John Smith - "Life's Been Good To Me."

This is a tribute to John Smith one of the actors of the television western, "Laramie." It's a compilation of his work composed by his dear friend, Mary Brown. The song, "Life's Been Good To Me" was composed and performed by her friend, Rollie Stevens. For you Laramie fans, the last half of the video has some great shots of "Smitty" and Robert Fuller from their days on Laramie.

Please note, that this video was made by Mary, owner and operator of "Festival of the West" and I'm just the uploader. Hope that you enjoy it!

John Smith brought my friend Cheryl and I together as pen pals way back in 1962. We were members of his then fan club. 47 years on and though pen has been replaced by email - we're still doing well and keeping in touch. A lot has happened in those years, we've both experienced the loss of our soulmates but our friendship has remained strong throughout. So sad to learn JS is no longer with us. A very warm and moving tribute. He was a very good looking man.

In the 60's when I was a little girl, my family went to some kind of exhibition and there was a booth where you could have your picture taken with a group of celebrities. Me, my brother and dad decided to do it. I remember my brother stood by 'Vanderbilt' from F-Troop and this good looking cowboy kneeled and said to me, "This time I get the pretty girl." I was shy but I went and sat on his knee and we had our picture taken. That good looking guy was John Smith and I still have that picture.

Hi, what a great story! You should head over to Robert Fuller's unofficial website and share your story. Mary would love to hear your story of meeting John.  She was good friends with him and has lots of fond memories. We'd love to see your picture too!

I have been attending Festival Of The West for a couple of years now. I have been meaning to tell Mary my story of my meeting with Mr. Smith. But it's been hard tracking her down with so many people, Plus at this year's event inside the tent, it was a bit unbearable with the heat, Maybe next year we will connect.

Thanks,

I agree! They sure don't make great Westerns like these anymore!

[Kimbersan]

I agree, he definitely was underrated and gone way before his time. ;-(
