Jeffery Smith Obituary
He was born in Gaston County on Feb. 4, 1963, to the late Frances and Harold Coleman Smith Sr.
Jeff is survived by his wife of 10 years Ginger Smith; daughter Lacey Smith; step daughter Jillian Bartlett; brothers Jabo Smith and Jerry Browning; several aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and cousins, whom he loved very much. There will be a void in so many hearts and he will be missed so much.
Jeff was a loving father, husband and friend. He had a great big heart and never met a stranger. He loved music, his dog P-Dab, the UNC Tarheels and the Carolina Panthers.
He was employed by Lincare where he loved his work family and his patients.
A celebration of Jeff's life will be 7 p.m. Thursday at West Cramerton Baptist Church, 5006 Wilkinson Blvd. Gastonia NC 28056.
The family will receive friends 6 to 7 p.m. before the service.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to West Cramerton Baptist Church.
A Simple Service, burial and cremation, is serving the family, 704-884-0150.
