We regret to advise of the death of Sapper Michael T. Smith (Ret'd) on Friday, 14 August 2015 at age 39. Michael arrived in 2 Combat Engineer Regiment, Petawawa, ON in 1995. He completed two tours with the unit in Bosnia (IFOR 1996 and SFOR 1998-1999) before he took his release from the Canadian Forces in 1999. Michael embraced life whether he was soldiering, being a paramedic/firefighter, cycling, painting, or snapping photos.
Cremation has taken place and a private family celebration will be held in the future. Donations and/or volunteer help to www.soldieron.ca , a PTSD support group, can be made in Michael's memory. Online condolences can be sent to : http://www.harrisfuneralhome.ca/obits.php?id=1544
