She was the Beloved wife of the late Calvin B. Smith, Sr.; mother of Calvin B. "Skipper" Smith Jr. (Wendy), Stephen P. Smith (Jackie), and the late Terri Smith; daughter of the late James F. Sievers and Blanche Barrios Sievers; sister of Helen Bourgeois and James J. Sievers; grandmother of Melissa Jones, Brittany Jones, Jeremy Smith, Jason Smith, Brandon Paternostro (Amanda), Justin Smith (Leanne), Kristin Smith Quarrella (Carl), Bryce Smith, and Connor Smith; great-Grandmother of Caileigh, Gannon, Parker Smith, Seger, Kynleigh, Brees, Parker Paternostro, and Skylar. She is also survived by many other relatives and friends.
As her grandson, Justin, remembered, "She was so kind, funny, and stubborn. She always showed what the true meaning of unconditional love is. Even as her health was deteriorating as of late she called to check on me and my family and ask if there was anything she could do to help us. Monday, even as she sat there barely able to breathe, she was making us laugh. God, I will miss the ol' gal so much."
A Funeral Mass will be celebrated in the Chapel of Westside Leitz-Eagan Funeral Home on Wednesday, May 15, 2024 at 11:00 AM. Visitation will begin at 9:00 AM. Entombment will follow in Our Lady of Prompt Succor Cemetery in Westwego. Express condolences at www.westsideleitzeagan.com.
