Cleo Smith Obituary
"My dear sweet ornery as heck and always fun aunt Genni. The world had Phyllis Diller, Lucille Ball, and Carol Burnett. We also had Aunt Genni in that arena."
"Your Mom was always so nice to me and I felt like she was a safe space when I didn't always have that at home."
"I am so sorry to hear the passing of your beloved mother, Cleo. I have no doubt that she is in the presence of our Lord and all of her loved ones including your dad."
" I loved her so much.. she was a beautiful person "
"Your mom was very important to me... One of her main joys was when she saw Bronson, it made her so happy when he said, Grandma, I'm right here... with all her smiles. She went on a journey with God to heaven, and I'm sure that right now she's celebrating in heaven because she's there with God. "
"We love momma Cleo and how loving, strong and wise she is. (Wisdom she gave me) "
"We miss her so much! Our feisty lady she brought so much joy and laughter around here... "
