John Smith is worthy of being inducted into the cowboy hall of fame for the many western movies & shows that he starred in especially in the role of Slim Sherman in the TV show “Laramie.”
I opine that John Smith has unmistakably delivered what viewers expected from him and even beyond. He certainly deserves all the recognition and respect that we can confer on him, an actor of great moral character who represents respect, strong will, courage and love in an outstanding way, which instills in all generations the values of life.
John is a very worthy actor to be inducted into the Cowboy hall of Fame . He was a positive role model for so many growing up watching Laramie. Thank you .
This tribute is so long over due...John was the epitome of a Western cowboy hero.
John was a great actor who could convey so much feeling without saying a word. Tall, handsome, and a voice that could melt hearts. He held his own beside many Hollywood legends. He deserves this award.
He was the greatest and deserves this honor
John smith was an amazingly talented western actor and should be in the Hall of Fame! Please consider him! Thanks! PattyT

John Smith has a great body of work that truly represents the Cowboy as well as a great actor. He is most likely known by most of us as Slim in Laramie. But he was in lots of movies with the best actors of their time. Please let him join the other cast member of Laramie.
