He was born on February 6, 1980 in Peoria to Michael Henry and Cynthia "Cindy" (Kilpatrick) Smith. He was preceded in death by his father; paternal grandparents, Henry and Beulah Smith; maternal grandparents, Dan and Shirley Kilpatrick and Eleanor Singleton; and several cousins, Joey Smith, Cody Smith, and Danielle Kilpatrick.
Surviving to cherish his memory is his mother Cindy of Hanna City; two brothers, Matthew Ryan (Katelyn) Smith of Trivoli and Daniel Anthony Smith of Hanna City; two nieces, Addison and Emerson Smith and one nephew, Matthew Michael Smith.
Mikey worked as a Manager at The Warehouse in Hanna City and was the lead singer and Guitarist for the former Punk Band Sick. Mikey will be remembered for his quick wit, outspoken nature and off the wall humor. He also had a uncanny knack for taking orders by memory. He loved his cat Kingsford. And believed that it didn’t matter who you were or how much you had you were still his friend.
