Our Deepest sympathies go out to Kelly Smith and her entire family as well as the employees of Tommy's . The restaurant chain is iconic in Ft Worth and the loss of it's founder leaves a deep hole in our community. Prayers and blessings

Our beloved co-founder, Tommy Smith passed away peacefully surrounded by his family and wrapped in love Sunday afternoon. Tommy and his wife, Glenda founded Tommy’s in 1983. The legacy of great burgers in a friendly environment will continue and stay in the Smith family. Arrangements are pending at Greenwood Funeral Home. We ❤️ you, Tommy.
