Obituary of Paul Smith
With heavy hearts and profound love, we announce the passing of Paul Smith, who departed this life on June 6, 2025, at the age of 77.
Born on January 16, 1948, to the late Gertrude McKenzie and Olive "Ollie" Smith, Paul was a devoted son, loving husband, father, proud grandfather, and cherished friend to many. Known as a jack of all trades, Paul could fix, build, or figure out just about anything. His talents, resourcefulness, and can-do attitude made him the go-to person for family and friends alike.
Paul is preceded in death by his beloved son, Michael Richard Smith, whose memory he held close to his heart. He is survived by his devoted wife, Miriam Smith; his loving children, Paula Smith, Miguel Hernandez, and Christina Breault; and his treasured grandchildren - Garret, Ciarra, and Victoria - who brought immense pride, joy, and light to his life.
Though Paul may no longer walk beside us, his love, laughter, and wisdom live on in the hearts of those who knew him - especially through the legacy of his wife, children and grandchildren.
Family and friends will be received on Wednesday June 11, 2025 from 10:00am until 11:30am followed by a funeral service at 11:30am at DeMarco-Luisi Funeral Home, 2755 S. Lincoln Ave. Vineland, NJ. Burial will follow at Greenwood Memorial Park, E. Broad St, Millville, NJ.

I was one of his favorite waitresses when I worked at the Millville Queen. I was close with his Son Mike, who passed last year. Both deaths break my heart! May they both rest is peace

Our family met Paul this past year. He was an impressive individual. He spent a few hours in our home and made us feel like we were his family. I wish my kids could've benefit from his expertise. There aren't enough Maverick Men like him. My prayers and condolences go out to his family. Thank you for sharing him with us. The Rodriguez-Gonzalez Family
