Max Malin Smith, 64, passed away early Thursday morning, July 28th 2022 in Vancouver, WA after a 6 year battle with melanoma.

Everyone who had the pleasure of knowing Max knew him to be patient, kind, and hard working. He was always a glass-half-full kind of guy who loved his family dearly. He was adventurous and fun-loving, with a great sense of humor and a mischievous spirit. He enjoyed camping, playing all sorts of games, riding his motorcycle, admiring the scenery, and cheering on the Seahawks.

He is survived by his wife Mary Smith, his children Caitlin and Shane Smith, his grandson Colton Smith, his mother Arlene Nelson, his siblings Angelee (Bob) Torppa, Roxy (Steve) Forbes, and Karl (Shana) Smith, and numerous aunts, uncles, nieces, and nephews. He is preceded in death by his father Howard Nelson.

There will be a celebration of life held at Valley Bible Church in Rosburg, WA on Saturday, September 17th at 2pm. The reception will be a lunch with refreshments, a photo slideshow, and an opportunity to share stories about Max.
