Visit the Mulkey-Bowles-Montgomery Funeral Home website to view the full obituary.
In Loving Memory of Joseph Michel Smith affectionately known as "Joe" who graced this world with his presence on March 17, 1986 at Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas Texas. He was born to the parentage of Michael Lee Smith and Lori Ann Trobaugh.
Joseph was an artist at heart. He performed and created art in various forms throughout his entire lifetime. He wanted to become a tattoo artist, so he bought equipment and did just that. He found streaming by accident and as a calling. He was talented and a natural at interacting with people. He had over 2K dedicated followers and will be missed by all of them. He created art for that community as well in the form of custom paint jobs actually placed on the vehicles featured in the games that he streamed. This was his career and it was just beginning.
Additionally, Joseph was an avid sports enthusiast. He was always cheering passionately for the Detroit Lions! He demonstrated deep passion and loyalty to the Lions rather than win or lose! He Protected the Den and Restored the Roar every game day. Joseph was a gentle and understanding man who was slow to anger unless the video game lagged! Rather it was Fortnite, 2K, Warzone it was never Joe, How could it be? He was indeed a Pro! Video games were highly stimulating to him and his absolute
favorite pastime. He looked forward to playing with his cousins daily, all of whom he loved very much.
Joseph departed this life on November 13, 2024. He leaves behind a legacy of gaming, art, love, and memories that will forever be etched into the hearts of those who loved him.

I can´t believe its been 1 year. I can´t believe you´re gone. It feel like yesterday we shared laughs and plans. I´m been keeping up with Detroit lions. They are trying to hang in there this season. I love you Joseph and I miss you still. I pray for strength to keep going. But I´m still in love with you and I wish you were here.

Joe and his cousin would stay with Bobby and I during the summer on the weekends sometimes. He was so little and had the cutest little smile! We rented movies, go to the park to play ball, or the boys would have video game competitions. Joe would get so wound up. He was always bigger than life with a fun personality. Always trying to find a way to make someone laugh or smile. I wished I had the opportunity to know the man he became. When I think of him, I will always see that cute little freckled face boy who always had a smile for you. Bless the Angels Joe. You will be much more than missed my little one.
