Anna J. Smith

November 4, 1923 - February 27, 2022

Anna J. Smith, age 98, of Henderson, KY, passed away Saturday, February 26, 2022, at her home under the care of St. Anthony’s Hospice. Anna was an army wife for 27 years. She cared for her husband, children, and home in whatever area they were stationed in. She opened her home to anyone in need; whether it was her children’s friends or family or even acquaintances in need, the door was always open. Anna attended Immanuel Baptist Temple for many years when her husband’s military career allowed the family to be in Henderson long term between WWII and Vietnam. Anna loved reading, especially historical romances and, more recently, mysteries. In addition to her parents, Alva and Vetra (Heflin) Wade, Anna was preceded in death by her husband of 67 years, Merrell Smith. Anna is survived by daughter Debbie Smith of Henderson, KY; son Michael R. Smith and his wife Sonia of Henderson, KY; brother Carroll Wade of Hartford, KY; 3 grandsons; 2 great grand-daughters; nieces and nephews. Relatives and friends are invited to Anna’s Life Celebration from 12:00 p.m. until service time on Thursday at Benton-Glunt & Tapp Funeral Home. The funeral service will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Thursday, March 3, 2022, at the funeral home with Reverend John Brumfiel officiating. Burial will follow at Roselawn Memorial Gardens in Henderson, KY. Expressions of sympathy may take the form of contributions to St. Anthony’s Hospice, 2410 S. Green Street, Henderson, KY 42420, www.stanthonyshospice.org.
