A native of Rock Hill, SC, Mr. Smith was the oldest son of John O’dell Smith, Jr. and Sherri Kimbrell Smith (step-dad, Jerry Branch).

Juicy had a heart of gold and would never hesitate to give to others in need. His "bigger than life" personality made him well-known in his community where he never met a stranger.

Family was the most important to him and his favorite saying was, “where mama goes, Juicy goes.”  He was a member of Texas Baptist Church, in San Antonio TX and was very involved in their Bus Ministry. He was also a big time Gamecock fan and had a passion for the game of Cornhole.

Surviving in additions to his parents, are his brother, Chaz Smith; three sisters, Tasha Smith, Tiffany Smith, and Kristen Smith (Jesse Gelow); step-brother, Shane Branch; half-sister, Christy Henderson; four nephews, Talyn, Cameron, Drayke, and Jaxon ; and four nieces, Abagail, Aysley, Sydney and Camila.
