Smith’s primary business career was as senior vice president of The Robinson-Humphrey Company, a regional financial brokerage firm, where he managed the Mobile office for 25 years before his retirement in 2002.
Known as Gunter, he graduated from Webb Preparatory School in Bell Buckle, Tenn., and received his Bachelor of Science from Georgia Tech in 1963, where he was a member of the SAE fraternity.
After college, Smith served three years as an officer aboard the heavy cruiser, USS Northampton. He moved to Mobile, Ala., in 1963 following his naval service.
Smith was an avid pilot and aviation enthusiast, and his yellow Navy biplane was a familiar sight around the Mobile Bay area for almost 20 years. He was a member of several aviation organizations, including the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association, the Experimental Aircraft Association, the National Biplane Association and the Piper Cub Club.
For the past 20 years, Smith split his time between Mobile and Cary Meadfamily farm in upstate New York near Cooperstown.

Arrangements are under the guidance of Tillapaugh Funeral Service, Cooperstown.
I was deeply saddened today to learn of the passing of a close longtime friend, Gunter Smith. For many years he was a loyal customer of my antique store in Cooperstown, NY; a business relationship which soon grew into a close personal friendship. Some of my fondest memories of Cooperstown were wonderful dinner parties he and his wife, Bradley, hosted at their estate on Otsego Lake. Gunter was one of those rare individuals you meet in life who always had a smile on his face and a quick laugh. He was an erudite man with a keen intelligence and a store of wonderful anecdotes. May he deservedly rest in peace.
