Lucy Smith Obituary
OVIEDO, Fla. -- Lucy Lou Anne Smith of Oviedo, Fla., passed away peacefully, surrounded by loving family on Wednesday, March 12, 2008, in the early morning.
Lou Anne was a beautiful, proud and courageous woman who cherished spending time with her family and friends.
Lou Anne was born in Portland and was raised in Windham. Lou Anne considered Maine to be her home away from home and always looked forward to watching sunsets over Highland Lake during her visits. Lou Anne also enjoyed shopping, decorating her home, cooking Italian foods and being an extraordinary Nonni to her grandchildren. Lou Anne was employed with Publix Super Market in the Deli Department. Lou Anne loved being around people and always had a smile on her face even during her last days. Lou Anne will live on through the hearts of her family and friends.
She is survived by her husband and best friend of 40 years, George Smitty Smith. Her memory will live on through her sons, Noel Smith and his wife Cheryl of Windham, Scott Smith and his wife Kiera of Holden, Mass.; and their two children, Evan and Maggie. She is also survived by her loving mother, Agnes Prescott of Westbrook; sister Connie Hodgdon and brother-in-law, Kermit Hodgdon Jr. of Windham; her nephews, Jamey Hodgdon of Gorham and Jeffrey Hodgdon of Austin, Texas; and her younger brother, Anthony Prescott and his son William of Windham. Lou Anne is predeceased by her father, Kenneth Prescott and her brother, Rocky Prescott.
A plaque displayed in Lou Anne's kitchen sums up her values in life: In the end, nothing we do or say in our lifetime will ever matter as much as the way we have loved and enjoyed our children and families.
A memorial service will he held Saturday, March 15, 2008, at 5 p.m., at Baldwin Fairchild Funeral Home, Oviedo, Fla. Family and friends will have a gathering at the funeral home immediately following the service. Please view and sign the family guestbook at www.baldwinfairchild.com.

George,
I cannot believe she has been gone almost a year now. Not a day goes by that I do not think of her and cherish the memories we all had together.

Smitty: Today, July 17, we just heard of LouAnne's passing. We are so very sorry to hear of this and you are in our thoughts. She was always so kind and loving. She always loved taking care of and decorating your homes. We're glad to hear you had grandchildren, which she surely enjoyed! Hope you are doing well, along with the boys and their families.

I also work at Quest Dianostics In Oviedo. For the past few months I have been really thinking of Lucy. You see you all know her as Lou Anne. I only knew her as Lucy. When she would come in to get her blood drawn I would see her and say there's Luuuucy. She always brought a smile to my and everyone elses face. I count myself blessed to have known her, if only for a brief time on this earth. I pray that I will see her again when I enter into the arms of Jesus. God Bless her family. We will all miss her at Quest.

To Lucys family,
I work at Quest Diagnostics in Oviedo and met Lucy there when she would come to get her blood drawn, let me just say what a pleasure it was knowing her. She was such a lovely woman who always made us girls smile when she would come in. I have a 2yr old daughter and she showed me a picture of her grandbaby, she was so proud! May she rest in peace and know we will deeply miss her....

To the family of LouAnne, I am deeply sorry for your loss. I truly enjoyed the opportunity working with her. She was an inspiration to all who ever got to know her. Her demeanor through her sickness was better than a person who just had a simple paper cut on their hand. I will miss her terrible. I am so sorry. Rest now LouAnne

Mrs. Prescott, George, Noel & Scott:
Louanne will forever be in your lives with all the wonderful memories you have of her. Each time you think about her she will be thinking and watching over you. She was model daughter, mother, wife and "Nonni".
There will always be a void but try to remember all the "great times" you ALL had together. Louanne was unselfish and kindhearted. I am truly sorry for the loss of a "Fine Lady". I am sending condolences on behalf of the entire O'Keefe and Manning family
