Della Smith Obituary

SMITH, Della M., Della, age 93, peacefully entered into eternal rest on Wednesday, April 24, 2024. She is survived by her devoted husband, Charles Smith and his family. She is also survived by her daughter, Anita Hubbard; her son, Dennis Hubbard (Blair); grandchildren, Ian Hubbard and Meggin Gieringer (Justin); and 4 beautiful great-grandchildren, Sophie, Declan, Ever, and Lucy.

Della's unwavering faith and deep spirituality were the guiding forces in her life. She was a devoted Christian where she found solace, community, and purpose. Della's love for God was evident in her daily actions and in the way she treated others with kindness, compassion, and forgiveness. She had a warm and welcoming spirit that made everyone feel valued and loved.

A memorial service will be organized in the near future.

Della Smith will be deeply missed by her family, friends and all who had the privilege of knowing her. Her unwavering faith, love, and service to others will forever be remembered and cherished.

May Della's soul rest in eternal peace and may her spirit continue to guide and inspire us all.

I have known Della all my life. She was always a big part of my family.
She truly loved the Lord and lived her life by faith.
I know she is in heaven dancing on the streets of Gold!
With all my love to her and her family
