Beloved husband of Susan Smith (nee Wells).  He was so very proud & loved his two children, Shannan Hewak and Nicholas Smith (Nicole Tamayo).  He was the proud and loved grandfather of Jase & Vann Hewak, Parker & Tenley Smith and Jordyn Tamayo.  He will be lovingly remembered by his sister Brenda Sinclair.  Mike was predeceased by his parents, Robert Russell Smith & Catherine Anne Theresa (nee Bulger).

 

Mike will be remembered for his love of life and his friends who have meant so much to him.  He cherished each and every one of you.

 

Mike was born and raised in Cobourg, Ontario.  From there he lived and worked in Peterborough, where he and Susan were married in 1976.  He eventually moved to South Porcupine, Barry’s Bay, Bowmanville and finally Wilmot Creek.

Yours forever & a day!
