**Obituary**
In loving memory of Shane Jeremy Smith, a devoted father, husband, brother, son, and, grandpa who graced this world with his warmth and love. Shane was born on July 11, 1975, in Perry Oklahoma, where his journey began. Tragically, he departed from us on May 14, 2024, in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
Throughout his life, Shane wore many hats - a rancher and welder by trade but so much more to those who knew him best. His and fun personality endeared him to all who crossed his path. To his family, he was a pillar of strength; always ready to lend a helping hand and fix whatever needed fixing. His dedication to providing for his loved ones never wavered, even in the face of personal struggles.
Shane's pride and joy were his three daughters whom he raised with unwavering love and taught them the value of resilience. His role as "Cowpa" to his grandbabies brought him immeasurable joy. Colorado held a special place in his heart; it was where he found solace and made cherished memories exploring the mountains with his beloved family by his side.
Left to cherish Shane's memory are his wife of nearly 30 years, Brandi Smith; daughters Bailey Smith (and her fiancé Jessie Thayer), Karley Bowman (and her husband Jake), Shailey Smith (and her fiancé Stretch St. Clair); grandsons Colt Bowman and Memphis Neitzler; father Gene Smith; brothers Kenny Smith (and wife Dione), Cory Smith (and wife Shiloh); nieces and nephews Tara and Cody Hicks (and their family), Kyle Smith, Erica Smith; mother-in-law Brenda Avery; father-in-law Billy Avery; best friend Alejandro Chico Muniz; as well as a large extended family including "T" the dog.
While we mourn the loss of Shane from our lives, let us remember him for the love he shared so generously and the impact he had on all who had the privilege of knowing him. May we find comfort in each other's presence as we navigate this difficult time of grief.
Rest in peace, Shane Jeremy Smith. Your legacy of love and resilience will forever live on in our hearts.
