This is copied from an article in the Jonesboro Occasions featuring The Edge: One sad and tragic note must be mentioned. On one wall hangs a photograph of the late Xander Smith, a young and superbly talented musician who several years ago was killed in a tragic automobile crash on the Memphis-Arkansas bridge. The memorial to Smith is fitting and proper, Williams said, because he was an Edge fixture, and a beloved one, whose blossoming career as a uniquely talented musician was cut short and silenced forever in a split-second moment of tragedy. “Xander’s spirit and his music still live here at The Edge,” Williams said. “He was a wonderful young man whose memory I and others who knew him will cherish for the rest of our days. When musicians are performing in here, his photograph and the memories it evokes remind us of his wonderful talent and the grace of spirit he possessed until the day he was taken from us.”
