The community of the Great Lakes Museum (formally Marine Museum of the Great Lakes at Kingston) is saddened to learn of the passing of Maurice D. Smith. As Director and founding Curator of the museum from 1979 until 2004, and subsequently as Curator Emeritus, Maurice leaves a lasting legacy through his stewardship of the museum’s comprehensive collections—holdings he was instrumental in both forming and developing. The museum and maritime community are significantly diminished by his loss.

A memorial celebration will be held at 2 p.m., April 29, 2026 at the Gordon F. Tompkins Funeral Home, Central Chapel (49 Colborne St., Kingston, ON, 613-546-5454).

Online condolences may be made at www.gftompkinscentral.ca
