A procession will follow the service from the church to S.R. 155 and onto John Frank Ward Boulevard. It will continue around the McDonough Square, exit left on Zack Hinton Parkway, then turn right onto McGarity Road. Those wishing to line the streets for square in honor of Smith should arrive by 2:30 p.m.
Smith died Friday morning at Piedmont Hospital due to complications from the injuries he suffered from a gunshot wound in the line of duty, according to the Henry County Police Department.
Police said they were called out to the dentist's office for a disruption call when 53-year-old Dimaggio McNelly came in acting erratically.
McNelly was struggling with Smith, when the officer's gun went off, hitting both of them. McNelly also died in the shooting.
Smith was a seven-year veteran of the Henry County Police Department. He graduated from Henry County High School in 2004 and attended Clayton State University where he earned a criminal justice degree.
His car has been placed outside Henry County headquarters for anyone in the community to pay respects. In lieu of flowers, the department asks for donations for his family at The Southern Credit Union located at 2097 Highway 20 West in McDonough.
