When I said "today" what I actually meant was this night. I'm nearly done now and I'll have it up before I go to bed. 
In the meantime:
Smith is an extremely morose person in private, constantly focused on his dead family. In public, he hides his pain extremely well and can even be jovial and a bit snarky. His laughter and smiles never really make it to his eyes though. When others are talking, he'll stay quiet until an opening to speak presents itself, and then he may go into length as if afraid that someone may interrupt him. He's almost always a bit on edge and people moving behind him make him extremely nervous, as do large groups. Whether frightened or in pain, he laughs as a defense mechanism; sometimes a light chuckle and at other times uproarish laughter. Despite his marriage to an extraterrestrial, he can still be a bit standoffish towards aliens.
