  • Notes 
    • Dr. Aubrey H. Smith (Hubert), 90, of West Lafayette, died at 12:20 PM Monday, March 11, 1996, in Home Hospital. Born Oct. 3, 1905, in Westchester, Nova Scotia, Canada, he married Doris Beebe in 1930 in Old Lyme, CT; she survives.
      Dr. Smith received his bachelor's degree at Mount Allison University in Sackville, New Brunswick, and completed his master's and PhD in mathematics in 1932 at Brown University. He moved to West Lafayette from Providence, RI, in 1936. He was with the mathematics department at Purdue University for 37 years, retiring in 1972. He also taught at Brown University and Swarthmore University in Philadelphia.
      Dr. Smith was a member of Central Presbyterian Church in West Lafayette, the American Math Society, Mathematical Association of America, Indiana Academy of Science and Sigma Phi fraternity. Mr. Smith was an avid photographer and took many pictures and slides of Purdue, Oregon, Canada, and Florida. After retirement, Mr. Smith took up painting, sometimes recreating landscapes on canvas from pictures taken years earlier. He was a very talented artist and his paintings adorn his nephew's home in Oregon.
      His wife is the only immediate survivor, but he is survived by two nephews and their wives, Gerald and Judy Brown of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, and Laurie and Mildred Fulton of Truro, Nova Scotia, Canada and by nephews from his wife's family: One in Oregon and one in Montana.
