  • I would prefer "for" to "of". In the second you could also change "smile" to "to smile".

I agree with Kate Bunting's comment that the second sentence does not make sense. The first sentence is having an apostrophe(') which indicates possession “person's smile = smile of a person”. Thus, in my opinion, it makes the first sentence more meaningful.
