Obituary of Gladys Mildred Smith

It is with great sadness that the family of Gladys Smith announce her passing at the Dr. Hugh Twomey Health Centre in Botwood on Sunday, August 21, 2022 at the age of 75 years surrounded by loves ones.  Predeceased by her husband Kitchener Smith, parents Clara and Thomas Fudge, brothers Edward and Tommy (Shirley), sisters Betty Biddiscombe, Norma (Woody) Woodside, Shirley (Scott) Hemeon and Phyllis Yates.  Gladys leaves to mourn her sons Darrell (Madonna), Cory (Jocelyn), daughter Jennifer (Peter) Howarth.  Grandchildren Melissa (Lucas), Jason (Alliey), Brandon, Amanda (Adam), Breanne and Joshua.  Great grandchildren Aria and Aiden (Melissa).  Sisters Ivy (Roger) Higdon, Vivian (Cal) Anstey.  Sisters-in-law Madeline Fudge, Barb Bishop (Dick), Joyce (Bud) Noseworthy, Valda Smith (Bill).  Brothers-in-law Mitch Biddiscombe, Beaton Yates, Wayne (Denise) Smith, Gary Smith (Linda), Randy (Lisa) Smith and a large circle of neices and nephews and friends.  Gladys retired after working with Riverview Chevolds in Grand Falls-Windsor for over 35 years.  Gladys and Kitch together raised two beautiful sons making the most of the great outdoors, enjoying camping, hunting and fishing.  Gladys cherished each one of her grandchildren and I bet each one of them would remember a cone of shampoo on their heads and nan singing it's a marshmellow world.   She dearly loved her family.  Her family wishes to express a heartfelt thank you to all the nurses and staff at the Dr. Hugh Twomey Centre  that cared for mom in the past years.

Funeral service will be held at the Salvation Army Citadel, Bishop's Falls on Wednesday, August 24th at 11:00 AM.  Interment will follow at the Salvation Army Cemetery.  Pallbearers are sons Darrell and Cory Smith, nephew Byron Noseworthy, neighbour Bob King, Adam Spracklin and Kyle Vanderstelt.
