Davion Devon Smith, 32, of Las Vegas, NV; passed away on January 28th, 2024. Davion was born on November 11th, 1991 in Las Vegas, NV; to Chantel Bolton and Johnny Smith Sr. He attended schools in the Clark County School District but received his General Education Diploma (GED) later in life. As a child he split his time between his parents, aunts, and grand-parents’ homes. He was a big kid at heart who enjoyed riding skateboards, mini bikes, and hanging out with family and friends. He was known for his humbleness, playful nature, and his loyalty to his family and friends. The only things he loved as much as his family/friends are money and women. Always one interested in trying to find ways to make money, he was a natural hustler. Restricted with vision problems, Davion was never too proud to try his hand at various ways to make money. Starting as young as 7, he has tried anything from taking out neighbors’ trash to selling incense and perfume to selling clothing. Davion was extremely humble and wanted the best for all around him, especially his daughter. Recently returning home from dealing with the consequences of an accident, he hit the ground running towards reclaiming the lost time with his family and friends. At the time of his passing, Davion was employed with NorAm International.
