Willard Carroll Smith Sr’s demise has caused an outpouring of grief within the entertainment industry. The late Will Smith’s ex-wife, Sheree Fletcher, has confirmed the unfortunate news. Will, in the past, has talked about his fear of his father’s reaction if he ever consumed drugs. In his own words,
“I felt my father would kill me. Literally.” Despite this, Will has always had immense respect and admiration for his father, whom he considers to be a constant source of positivity and stability in his life.
According to Will, his father was tough, but not a tyrant. He was always there to keep him in line, and his stern look was enough to let him know when he was crossing the line. Willard was an independent businessman who worked hard to provide for his family. He set up refrigeration systems in supermarkets, and his hard work ensured that his family had everything they needed.
Willard Carroll Smith Sr’s passing is a great loss to Will Smith and his family. He was not only a father figure but also a role model who instilled important values in his son. His dedication and hard work to provide for his family will always be remembered. The entertainment industry has lost a great father, a supportive figure, and a successful businessman. We extend our deepest condolences to the Smith family during this difficult time.
