Sherrell Smith Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Major Family Funeral Home - Springfield on Feb. 16, 2026.
Sherrell Smith, 53, passed away on February 7, 2026, in Springfield, Oregon.

Born on May 17, 1972, Sherrell brought warmth and kindness to all who knew her. She was known for her loving spirit, welcoming nature, and the joy she found in sharing meals as a wonderful cook. Her passion for cooking was matched only by her love of coast trips and her unwavering support for the Oregon Ducks.

Sherrell was an integral part of the New Life Church family in Springfield, where her presence was cherished by many. Her faith and dedication to her church community were evident in the way she lived-always with compassion and generosity.

She is survived by her husband, Tony Smith, and their beloved dogs, who brought her great comfort and companionship.

A memorial service celebrating Sherrell's life will be held on February 21 at 11:00 a.m. at New Life Church in Springfield.

May her memory bring comfort to those who knew and loved her.
