On July 4, 2014, our mom, once again claimed her independence. She died peacefully at her home.
She returned to our Heavenly Father with her head held high. She was able to tell him that she had done her BEST! On her resume', she was able to list her most amazing job titles: Mom, Grandmother, Great-grandmother, Aunt, Sister, Daughter, and Friend.
Jessie was born in Georgetown, Idaho to Levere and Carmen Smith on September 7, 1926.
She married Don F. Smith on April 18, 1941; later divorced; later sealed in the Mount Timpanogas Temple.
Her ENTIRE life was based on her family. ALL of her enjoyment in life came by way of her family. Her most cherished moments came when her entire family could get together and surround her.
Of all things in life, she wanted to be known as a woman who loved her family. She will be remembered for her AMAZING sense of humor. She made life easier for everyone because of it.
She was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and had a strong testimony of the gospel.
She served in the Primary for twenty-five years. She held such callings as Primary President (three times) and served in Young Women's for about seven years. She worked for the LDS Church Distribution Center for seventeen years.
