**Obituary for Merrill Lynch Smith** It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Merrill Lynch Smith, who left this world on December 1, 2025, in Moncks Corner, South Carolina.

Merrill was a proud graduate of Converse College, where she cultivated a love for learning that would last a lifetime.
