"Smitty"was a great inspiration to me. I always imagined I wanted to be like her and her friends with the silver hair. Now I have the silver hair. Many prayers for family and friends. She was one of my heroes.
We will always remember your laughter and joy in life and you are truly missed. You were a great friend and fellow traveler on life's journey. God bless and may Eric welcome you home
To Gale and daughters and family of Smitty: We wish to offer our condolences on the loss of your sister and mom. I had the opportunity to work with Smitty in the medical department of DuPont back in the late 1960s. Smitty was a delight to work with and made a lasting impression on me. What a great sense of humour Smitty possessed, as well as, a zest for life. Our hearts go out to her family at this sad time. Sincerely, Beth & Dick Duff, Kingston.
