Our beloved mother, Margaret Smith, went to be with the Lord on Wednesday, March 20, 2024. She was born on November 9, 1933 in Sweetwater, TN. She was a faithful member of Wallace Memorial Baptist Church. Her family was her world, and she took great pride in being a loving mother and grandmother. She was preceded in death by her husband, Earl E. Smith, Sr.; parents, George and Myrtle Kidd; daughter, Sondra Sliger; and her 8 siblings. She is survived by her children, Earl, Jr. (Ann), Jeff (Missy), Jerry (Linda), Sherri Bartlett (Michael); son-in-law, Ronnie Sliger; grandchildren, Brian Sliger, Angela Gerou (Duane), Jessica Mead (Tommy), Andrew (Lesley), Matt Smith, Annie, Allena, Joe, Zack, Abbi, Dustin, and Dylan Bartlett; and many special great grandchildren. We want to extend special thanks to Ben Atchley State Veterans Home for her excellent care over the last six months. Family and friends will meet at Asbury Cemetery for the 2:00 pm graveside service on Monday, March 25th. Pastor Kent Williams will officiate. Arrangements by Berry Lynnhurst Funeral Home, 2300 W.
