Stupid Smart Phone Question

Bear with me, I'm just a cave man...
I'm the guy (maybe the only one) who still does not own a cell phone.
Considering making the leap into the '90s.
QUESTION -- can I get a smart phone and skip the internet access? What's the point, right? Well, I want a phone. I'd like it to also use it to store & show photos,so I'd like a decent display. And also to store & play music. But that's it. I have zero interest in paying another monthly fee to "stay connected" wherever I am.
So, would it make sense for me to purchase a used (OMG-that's-so-last-year) phone with that functionality and just not sign on for internet service? Also, my wife has a cell & Verizon service. If I want to stick with Verizon do I need to find a phone that's "set up for" Verizon?
Guidance appreciated. Laughter and rolling eyes accepted.
