Hardyston - Andrew M. Smith, age 55, passed away on Tuesday, July 1, 2025 after a lengthy illness. Born in Orange, Andrew grew up and resided in West Orange before moving to Sussex County in 2006.
He was a self-employed certified welder.. Andrew had a strong passion for music and began making his own records, which led him into becoming a DJ. He belonged to several DJ groups and was well known in the area. Andrew's biggest loves were his family; his dogs, Goldberg and Angel; and his grandpuppy, Mylo. Everyone who knew him was blessed to have been around him. His personality was as big as his stature.
Andrew was predeceased by his father, Vincent Smith. He is survived by his mother, Ellen (Likos) Smith of Wantage; his fiancé, Patty McBride of Hardyston; his step-sons, John and Andrew of Hardyston; and his brother, Chuck Smith and his wife Christine of Hardyston.
