Obituary for William Garnet Smith

William Garnet Smith
William (Porky) Smith passed away peacefully at the age of 76 on Monday, January 2, after a long and courageous battle with cancer. He leaves to cherish his memory two children, Cinimin Smith and Wryan (Corlinda) Smith; and his two grandchildren Gavin and Shayla Smith. He also leaves behind his wife, Cory Smith of Edmonton, Alberta; his brother, Alan (Gay) Smith; two sisters, Gwen Smith (Andy Burns) and Ona (Ed) Bilan; one brother by heart, Mike Hofer Jr.; as well as numerous nieces and nephews. Porky always had a special bond with his niece Christie Ruhr (Jonesy). Porky was predeceased by his parents, Mathew and Lydia Smith (nee Baumbach); and four brothers, Bob (Beryl) Smith, Larry (Tootsie) Smith, Darel Smith and Cyril Smith. Porky was born June 27, 1940 in Ottawa, Ontario. He started work at a young age, and worked in various occupations throughout his life, but his passion was the food industry. He enjoyed socializing with family and friends, spending time with his grandchildren whenever he could, road trips, camping, feeding his wild pets, cheering on the Toronto Blue Jays and time spent fishing with Mike and the guys. The family would like to send heartfelt thanks to the Palliative Care Team, Home Care, Dr Harrison, Dr Alphin and their staff.
