Cleo T. Smith
May 24, 1925 - October 16, 2020
Cleo T. Smith, of Hot Springs, at the age of 95, traded in his earthly vessel for a glorious body without pain or suffering on Friday, October 16, 2020.
He was born on May 24, 1925, in Story, the son of E. P. Smith and Laura Ritchie Smith. On May 27, 1950 he married Willa Dene Brooks, who preceded him in death and are now reunited. He was also preceded in death by his parents; one sister, Milbie Smith; and four brothers, Wilburn Smith, Clifton Smith, Clyde Smith and U.R. Smith.
He was a member of the Rock Creek Family Church and worked for Valley Glass for many years before starting Discount Glass, from which he retired. Cleo was a faithful and hardworking man of God who most often found his treasure in family as well as things above. His love and devotion to Jesus, family and church always came out in works as much as words. He showed us that faith supported by works will make for a tremendously blessed life rich with Godly possessions.
We all enjoyed the fruits of his labor. Whether it was from his “little” garden, his ability to pinch a penny, or to fix something with a little wire, duct tape and many different colors of spray paint. What we enjoyed and will miss most of all is the strength of his faith-filled heart.
He is survived by his three sons and two daughters-in-law, Don and Kaye Smith of Hot Springs, Darrell Smith and Clay and Kay Smith, all of Royal; his daughter and son-in-law, Linda and Bruce Furgerson of Hot Springs; seven grandchildren, Justy and Stephanie Smith, Jamie and Whitney Smith, Shelby Smith, Lance and Robyn Smith, Kyle and Jessica Smith, Terra and Sam Goodin and Jason and Sara Furgerson; fifteen great-grandchildren; his sister, Ila Faye Caldwell of Mount Ida; numerous nieces, nephews, extended family members; and a host of wonderful friends.
Services will be held on Tuesday, October 20, 2020 at 2:00 PM in the Davis-Smith Funeral Home Chapel, Hot Springs with Bro. Justy Smith, Bro. Jason Furgerson and Bro. Mike Smith officiating.
Visitation will be Monday, October 19, 2020 from 6:00 PM until 8:00 PM at the funeral home.
Social distancing directives will be in place with no more than 100 persons at any one time in the funeral home chapel, avoidance of physical contact and all attendees 10 years of age or older must be wearing a face covering at all times when inside the funeral home.
Pallbearers will be Lance Smith, Kyle Smith, Jamie Smith, Brycen Furgerson, Noah Furgerson and Andrew Goodin.
