Smith, United States Navy, until his death on Nov. 10, 1970. Prior to moving to Florida, she was a member of the First Baptist Church, Eastern Star (past worthy matron and 50-year member) and the Woman's Club (past president) in Benton, Ill. At the time of her death, she was a member of the First Baptist Church in Leesburg. She was an avid traveler who during her early years of marriage crisscrossed the country many times with her young children following her Navy husband at a time when paved roads were not the norm. Her love of travel and exploration continued throughout her life. In her 70s, she returned to college and graduated with a bachelor of arts degree from Southern Illinois University. Music had always played an important part in her life. At various times, she had been a church music director, vocal soloist and choir member. In addition to this, she found the time to play the piano, organ and her beloved cello. In later life, she particularly enjoyed being a part of her church's Joy Choir for senior adults. She was preceded in death by her parents; husband; two brothers, Lyle and Ivan Davis, and one grandson, Christopher J. Smith.
