I love you, Meme. Rest in peace.
Ms Smothers was such a sweet friend and neigbor to my Mom, Nell Terry.and Mom loved her dearly. They had so much fun together making trips to their favorite place to shop, Walmart. So many stories but the one that sticks out is when they got caught in flood waters in Conway. As frightened as they were, they made an adventure out of it. Ms Smothers will truly be missed by all that knew her.
I love you, Meme.

We are sorry for your loss. Your family will be in our prayers.
