Evelyn Marie (Frazier) Smith was born May 18^th 1943 and departed this life August 7^th 2025.

Evelyn was born in Lawrence County, TN to parents James Woodrow and Hazel Marie (Rooker) Frazier.  Evelyn was a faithful Christian, and lived her life following the example set by Jesus.  She married her husband Leon Smith in 1964 and together they create a family centered on Christ.  Evelyn was a devoted wife, mother, sister, grandmother and great grandmother.  She counted her family as her greatest accomplishment.

Evelyn loved to laugh, and to spend time with her and Leon, was to know true joy.  They were a match made in heaven.  She was also loved spending time with her sisters; they were inseparable and enjoyed going on many trips over the years. She was a loving Aunt to all her nephews and nieces. She adored her children and was always a constant presence in their life, to lend a hand when needed, provide guidance or just to reassure them that they were loved. Her greatest role came as Nanny to her 10 grandchildren.  She loved them, babysitting many through most of their childhood.  You would find it difficult to find a more devoted grandmother. She loved them and gave them the same attention and guidance that she gave her own children.  Their love for her was equal to the love she gave them.

A light in this world, Evelyn embodied the principles laid out in the word of God.   Her charity and compassion were boundless.  She had many dear friends and will be missed by all that knew her.  Though we no longer have her with us, we need only close our eyes to see that smile that always greeted us at each meeting.  Her spirit has returned to God, and we have confidence that we will meet again.
