The 21-year-old was one of hundreds to brave the wind and the rain in Glasgow's South Side today as scarves were laid, flags unfurled, and tears shed for Smith.
During two spells at Ibrox, he secured 21 trophies for his boyhood club but today any Old Firm allegiances were tossed aside as a city united in grief.
“He was a legend and a great man,” said Daniel. “A wife has lost her husband as well.
“He was a great friend to Tommy Burns. A death is bigger than football."
