Mary Smith, 85, returned to live with loved ones gone before her on Thursday, September 29,2005. She passed away peacefully, surrounded by family, at the Sunshine Terrace.
Mary was born on August 29, 1920 in Salt Lake City, Utah, the daughter of Pearl Snow and Jesse Evard Welch. As a teenager, she moved with her family to Los Angeles, California, where she later married and raised her five children. She was a wonderful wife, mother, and grandmother.
Mary served in many positions in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She also found time to volunteer to teach ballroom dance to many young people in the community. She was employed as a dance instructor for many years and also worked as a medical secretary. Mary was honored to be the Los Angeles Area Mrs. America. Later she was also honored to join the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers.
Mary married Howard Norman Smith and became "Mary Smith" (which made her laugh!) on October 18, 1975 in Garden Grove, California. After Howard retired, they moved to Wellsville, Utah which has been home now for twenty-five years.
A very lovely and talented lady in many ways, especially in music; she could play-by-ear the piano and organ. She loved the old Hollywood stars and movies, and dolls of all kinds, which she liked to collect. She always loved to "leave you laughing"! Her sense of humor, and warmth and love, are joys we'll always remember.
She is survived by her husband, Howard N. Smith; daughter Valerie Jean Turk (Fred) of Mojave Valley, Arizona; son Paul Gandy (Jan) of PIano, Texas; daughter Anita Myers of EI Cajon, California; sister Marjorie McGregor of Littleton, Colorado; brother Jay Welch (Marcelle) of Salt Lake City, Utah; brother Robert Welch (Della Mae) of Los Angeles, California; brother Theodore Welch (Marilyn) of Beaverton, Oregon; sister Bonnie Waite (Wendell) of Las Vegas, Nevada; sister Catherine Welch of New York City, New York; step son Howard N. Smith (Magi) of Ridge crest, California; step daughter Susan Cito (Gary) of City of Industry, California; step son Craig Smith (Annette) of Logan, Utah; step daughter Sally Haymond (Gary) of Yucca Valley, California; and grandchildren. Mary was preceded in death by her mother, father, and step mother, Mildred Welch; brother Gerald Welch; brother William Welch; son Randall Scott Tincher; and daughter Donna Ruth Johnson.
Funeral services will be held on Monday, October 3, 2005 at 1:00 PM in the Wellsville 4th Ward Church, 49 West 200 South in Wellsville. A viewing will be held prior to services from 11:30 AM to 12:30 PM on Monday. Burial will take place in the Logan City Cemetery.
Condolences may be sent to the family at Allen Mortuaries.
The family would like to express their love and thanks to all those who have been so supportive...friends, family, neighbors, nurses and aides at Alpine Nursing, Hospice, Legacy House and the Sunshine Terrace.
