Anyone who has seen and heard the Band Concerts Under the Stars with Mr. Paul Smith in charge has had the very best that Lehighton area could offer.

Mr. Paul Smith was a very fine gentleman, a true American patriot and citizen of our United States of America, good husband and family man, and a leader of many fine musicians and actors and actresses of theatre and grand shows, right here in our own hometown.I, myself, feel very privileged to have known him and to have seen and heard his accomplishments, and I'm sure everyone else who knew him, feels the very same way as I.Mr. Paul Smith will be truly missed.Ruthann SchlechtLehighton
