Joseph Louis Smithers, affectionately known to many as Smitty, was born on March 12, 1994, and departed this world on July 2, 2026. As a dedicated groundskeeper at Northwood Cemetery, Joseph approached his work with reverence and commitment, ensuring the resting place of many was treated with care and dignity.

Beloved son of Keith Williams and Yvonne Smithers, Joseph was a cornerstone of his family, bringing joy and warmth into their lives. His memory lives on through his cherished children: Zayair Louis Smithers, Jasira Ciara Smithers, and Janiyah Alexis Smithers, who were the light of his life.

A brother to Eric Christopher Louis Smithers and Deanna Ward, Joseph was a source of love and laughter, embodying the spirit of kinship. His presence is dearly missed, yet his legacy of devotion and kindness will forever inspire those who knew him.
