Joey “Pepe” Smith, one of the icons of original Pinoy rock, passed away early Monday morning, January 28, at the age of 71.
The unfortunate news was confirmed in the posts of his daughters Daisy Smith-Owen and Sanya Smith.
Daisy posted a tribute for her father, saying, “Thank you for everything papa bear ko. Thank you for being the best dad in the world. I know youre in the best place now, no more pains papa.. i will see you in few days. I love you to the moon and back.”
Sanya, on the other hand, chose to post a photo of an intimate moment she shared with her dad.
Smith suffered a stroke late in 2017.
Smith is known for being a member of the iconic rock band Juan Dela Cruz.
