RIVERTON, Utah — The tragic accident has many in shock over a life taken too soon; FOX13 News is learning more about Marvell Smith: parole officer, devoted father, and award-winning photographer.
Smith was killed after the motorcycle he was driving collided with a truck early Wednesday morning.
Smith worked in corrections for more than 16 years and most recently served as a Drug Offender Reform Act Agent. On the Utah Department of Corrections’ Facebook page, a post reads, “He touched many lives – both the staff with whom he served and the offenders whose lives he helped change.”
Friend and co-worker Brock Findlay said: “It didn’t matter how you knew him. If you knew him, you loved him as a person. He was just a great guy that, you know, slow to judge quick to love.”
