A graveside service for Gwyn Williamson Smart will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, January 10, 2026, at Old Anacoco Cemetery with Reverend Kelly Ware officiating under the direction of Jeane's Funeral Service. Gwyn was born February 16, 1934, in Kentucky and passed away January 6, 2026, in Cleveland, Texas at the age of 91. Making jewelry was one of her favorite hobbies, and she was an avid Elvis fan. She loved Jesus and enjoyed watching televangelists. Her grandchildren and great-grandchildren were so precious to her, and she loved them greatly no matter how often she saw them. Gwyn was preceded in death by her former husband, Rees Smart; son, Kevin Smart; and parents, C.E. Williamson and Ruby Williamson. Those left to cherish her memory are son, Richard Smart; daughter-of-the-heart, Denise Ware; grandchildren, Christopher Smart (Pamela), Amber Taylor (Tosh), Tabitha Lindsey (John), Richard Catter (Andrea), Heather Smart, and Samantha Smart; nine great-grandchildren; one great-great-grandchild; and a host of extended family members and friends.
