Stephen Ronald Vincent Smith

It is with great sadness that Stephen passed away at

Peterborough Regional Health Centre on October 6, 2020 at the

age of 71 with his sister by his side. Survived by his daughter Tia

Carey (David), grandchildren Kaitlyn, Joshua and Peyton. Dear

brother of Susan Smith (Don). Predeceased by his parents

Ronald and Evelyn Smith. Fondly remembered as Steve by his

wonderful friends in British Columbia and Ontario. Steve was a

free spirit who lived on his own terms guided by his heart. He

embraced people from all walks of life and championed the

vulnerable. In British Columbia, he learned the Native methods

for salt and fresh water fishing which became his life-long

passion. Against medical advice and all odds, Steve wanted one

last road trip across Canada to be with family in Ontario. Steve

got his miracle. He was blessed to have his good friend drive him.

A heartfelt thank you to Steve’s friends, Rick and Violet and

family, Terry and Sandra who helped make this possible. Our

gratitude extends to all his supportive friends who were there for

him in his time of need. In honour of Steve’s wishes, a private

cremation will occur and no service will take place.
