Helen Smith

Our precious mom, grandma, and great-grandma returned to our Heavenly Father on Sept 27 surrounded by her loving family. Mom was born in Weston, Idaho on June 13, 1922 to Marinus and Hattie Swensen. Mom was a perfect example of service to her children, grandchildren, and everyone she met. She adored her children and grandchildren and always looked for ways to make them happy. She was always quick to smile and it was contagious. We couldnt have had a more perfect example of how to live our lives. She grew up in North Logan where she was raised on a farm with her brothers Harvey and Clyde and sisters Lois and Afton. Mom married Mercer Smith on Sept. 13, 1945 in Elko, Nevada. He preceded her in death on Dec. 4, 1993. Mom is survived by her children Mike, his wife Chris; her daughter Patty Annie and husband Ray; grandchildren: Michael, his wife Dion, Christopher and his wife Mitzi, Jason, Kelli and her husband Scot, Melissa and her husband Brad, Mitch, Zach and his wife Alyse. Her great- grandchildren Gil, Taylor, Maya, Isabel, Addison, Livie, & Beckam. She will be missed by everyone who knew her because of her generosity and sweet spirit. There will be a viewing for mom on Friday Sept 30 from 6:00 to 8:00pm at Russon Brothers Mortuary, 295 North Main in Bountiful, and a graveside service at the Logan cemetery Saturday Oct, 1 at 12:00 noon. The family would like to express our gratefulness to the nurses in the ICU for the compassionate care and love they showed for our sweet mom, and for Sue who was our angel.
