Tiffany Pearl Smith

Tiffany Pearl Smith born on May 29, 1981 in Murray, Utah, to Benjamin D. Smith and Carol M. Pappas Smith. Tiffany grew up in Bluffdale, Utah and graduated from Bingham High School in 1999. She went on to continue her interests in Early Childhood Education at Snow College in Ephraim, Utah and proudly graduated with her Associates Degree in 2001. 

She treasured many of her experiences as a nanny in Connecticut, as an Oakcrest Camp Counselor and many other opportunities where she made many lifetime friends. She looked forward to any moment she could to chat or have lunch with them. Everyone wanted to get to know her due to her infectious smile and a contagious laugh. Tiffany had a love of sewing and could create anything, even her sister's bridesmaid dresses. Quilting and cross-stitching were one of her favorite things to do that she learned from her Grandmother Pearl, who Tiffany was named after. Tiffany gave great hugs and always supported her Family. 

Tiffany survived breast cancer two times and found friends at every step of her journey. Tiffany wanted to help where she could and found ways to serve many around her. She loved to enjoy a good movie and has collected many of her favorites throughout her life. 

Tiffany was unexpectedly taken from this life and returned into the open arms of her mom on May 16, 2024. Her family and friends will miss her greatly and will feel the sadness associated with this prolonged separation. Even during her darkest times, Tiffany was always a ray of light for those who got to know her. 

Tiffany is survived by her father, Ben (Karen) Smith, and her sisters, Katie (Ben) Steckler, Emily (Jeremy) Green, and Lacy (Daniel) Arnold. She also had 5 nephews and 4 nieces whom she loved very much: Jonathan, Ryan, and Cameron Steckler. Jonah, Payton, and Ethan Green. Kenzy, Chloey, and Kiley Arnold. She is preceded in death by her Mother, Carol Marie Pappas Smith. 

We wish to thank all those who have helped, loved and carried her through her many life experiences, especially the nurses and cancer care advocates who took such wonderful care of her.
