Carrie R. Smith

 Carrie R. Smith, 93, has Gone Fishing.  She  embarked on her final journey home, March 7, 2021, while at home in Cabot.  Waiting to greet her was her Lord and Savior, after which, she will be united with the love of her life John D. and her Daughter Mary, searching for the perfect fishing hole.  May their reunion be a happy one.

 She worked at  for Du-Co Ceramics and retired after 12 years from Colonial Pharmacy. She was a member of St. Joseph R.C. Church in Cabot,  and the Saxonburg Area Sportsman Club. Carrie enjoyed bowling, formerly fishing, crocheting, and emailing family members. 
 
Entrusted to carry on her legacy of love and caring are her four sons;  John W. Smith of Cabot,  Richard A. (Kim) Smith of Leeton, MO,  Daniel P. (Jean) Smith of Leeton, MO and  Harry V. (Susan) Smith of Hampstead, MD, five daughters, JoAnn (Daniel) Crytzer of Freeport,  Karen (Richard) Reamer of Cabot,  Patricia Smith of North Augusta, SC,  Theresa (Thomas) Wetzel of Sarver and Janet (James) Ammon of New Castle, her sister, Rose (Bill) Reese of Sarasota, FL, 19 grandchildren and 23 great-grandchildren, also her "adopted" grands, Monty LaBreck,  Leeton, Angelo Martinez of Saxonburg, Sarah and Kevin Motko and their Parents Teresa and James of Herman.

She is preceded in death by her father, Vincenzo Consentino, her mother, Domenica Lombardozzi, her husband, John D. Smith, her daughter, Mary F. Smith, 5 brothers and 4 sisters, her daughter-in-law Kathy (Cypher) Smith and son-in-law Ed Byrd.  
 
 Friends will be received on  Wednesday, March 10, 2021, from 2-4 & 6-8  pm at Fox Funeral Home, Inc., Saxonburg, PA.
     
 Mass of Christian Burial  will be celebrated on Thursday, March 11, 2021, 10:00 am at the St. Joseph R. C. Church in Cabot.

 Thanks to all the nurses and aides from Concordia Hospice for their help and care.  Thanks also to Sarah and Jenn for your assistance when needed.  

Being an adventerous  spirit, she is requesting anyone in attendance not to wear black,-put on something colorful and celebrate her life not mourn her passing.  She believed flowers were for the living and asked that instead donations be made to the St. Crispin fund as St. Joseph Church or the South Butler Community Library.
