Mary Smith
December 6, 1949 - April 16, 2023
Conway, South Carolina - Mrs. Mary W. Smith, 73, widow of the late Glenn Greggory "Gregg" Smith, passed away peacefully Sunday, April 16, 2023 at her home. In addition to her husband, Mary was also predeceased by her beloved son, Oliver Shaw Hammond Smith.
Born on December 6, 1949 in Conway, SC, Mary was the daughter of the late Charles Everett "Pete" Wilson and the late Margaret Hayes Wilson. She taught in public schools for many years and as an adjunct professor at HGTC. She was also a business owner for several years.
Mary enjoyed spending time with the many wonderful friends she and Gregg made over their 47 years of marriage. Mary was a lover of books, chocolate, and a nice Bloody Mary at the end of the day. Her favorite pastime in recent years was feeding the squirrels and birds in her back yard and watching them enjoy the feast. If Mary was in the room, there was laughter. And if she had an opinion, she was glad to share it with you. Her wit will be greatly missed. She was absolutely loved by all who knew her.
Survivors include her sister, Alice W. Roscoe and her husband Ronald; her grandchildren, Ryker Smith and Easton Smith; her daughter-in-law, Alexandra Smith; her niece, Mary "Kat" Palmer and husband Michael; her nephew, Charles Byrd and his wife Mary Beth; and her great-nieces, Ali Byrd, Laurel Byrd, Maddie Sarvis (Seth), and June Palmer.
A Memorial Service will be held at 3:00PM Wednesday, April 19, 2023 at Goldfinch Funeral Home, Conway Chapel, officiated by Rev. Josh Finklea. The family will receive friends at the funeral home one hour prior to the service.
