Christian Orlando Duane Smith, age 20, passed away unexpectedly on January 12, 2020 in Houston, Texas. He was born on September 13, 1999 in Tucson, Arizona. As a child, Christian fell in love with fishing. His puppy Kane was his brother and he loved him very much. When his baby brother, Caleb, was born, he was so proud and loved him so much. At a very young age, Christian had a love of seafood and chocolate milk. He also loved being in the water, building things, and riding horses.
As a young adult, Christian developed a passion to go fast, racing and music. His dream was to be an EDM DJ and travel the world performing at concerts. He even started his own racing company, Black Mamba Racing. Christian was energetic, charismatic, and had a great sense of humor. He always had the ability to find the good in others. He loved helping people in need and always loved with all of his heart! Above all, Christian loved his family! Not one part of the day would pass without him letting everyone know he loved them.

We ALL love him very, very much!
