Mary Virginia Smith, 94, of Marion, Arkansas passed from this life into her Heavenly reward on November 17, 2020.

Virginia loved the Lord and her church. She made the best Italian Cream Cake in the world. She always had a ''can do'' attitude.

She was such an independent lady with an infectious smile who was always there to provide love and encouragement to others.

Her nursing home aide said she was her go to person when she needed help with family situations. She was loved by all the staff because of her politeness. She was always faithful to her church. Even when she had to use a walker and then a wheelchair, she was in ''her spot.''

She enjoyed traveling the USA and judging the Memphis In May Barbecue Fest.

She was an avid member of First United Methodist Church for over 50 years.

She was a dear lady and friend and she will be missed by all who were blessed to have her in their lives.
