Carson James Smith
BERKSHIRE: Carson James Smith, age 16, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, June 18th, 2023.
He was born in St. Albans on September 16th, 2006, the son of David and Melaney (Cyr) Smith.
Carson was an outstanding young man who loved anything with wheels and a motor, he would do anything to pull a wheelie or a burnout. Carson, a known country boy, loved to hunt and fish and always promised he would shoot Papa’s big 10-point buck. Carson, also known as “Smitty” was caring, compassionate, and helpful to his family and friends. Carson enjoyed spending time with his brother Cole and being able to shoot guns with him. Carson always made time for the love of his life, Macie, and always went above and beyond to see her or spend time with her. He would go out of his way to make someone’s day and always had the biggest smile and gave the biggest hugs to everyone he loved. Carson loved to cook and there may be a rumor that he was the “Master Chef” at Thirsty Burger or the Pinecone. Carson had a big heart for his pets and animals. He loved helping his Papa and the neighbors, the Bates family in the Sugarhouses, he enjoyed tapping and always stayed to help boil. Carson’s longtime ambition was to become a truck driver or heavy equipment operator. He will always be Mama’s porcupine.
Carson and Dylan are reunited together again raising hell.
He is survived by his parents, David and Melaney Smith; siblings, Emily Lemire and her husband Jordin, and Cole Smith; significant other, Macie Hemingway; grandparents, Charlie and Ellen Magnant, Kathy and Gary Read, and Luke Cyr Sr.; Uncle Roger, Aunt Jennifer, Uncle Luke and his fiancé Stacy Davis, and Aunt Stacey; special cousin, Junior; and best friend, Dalton Raymo, and many cousins.
