Banner Smith, born: 6/8/1928, died: 8/19/2020, Age: 92 - Flowery Branch, GA
Banner Smith and his twin brother Kennett played checkers with a small group of us at Bojangles' on Gate City Blvd, Greensboro, NC. His daughter, Melinda Knowles of Raleigh introduced me to Banner and his brother in late 2016. Kenneth was living in Winston-Salem at the time and both wanted to play in Raleigh but at this time we had no group there, so we invited them to play with us in Greensboro, NC. Kenneth moving to Greenville, SC in 2/2017 and currently living in an assisted living home, and has Alzheimer's.
