Letha Christine (Hodge) Smith

Letha Hodge Smith, age 80, of Moulton, AL passed away peacefully on March 16, 2024, at her residence surrounded by her family.  The family will host a private Celebration of Life.

Letha was born in Osceola, Arkansas on September 27, 1943, to Henry and Mary Moore Hodge.  She was preceded in death by her brother, James Hodge; parents, Henry and Mary Moore Hodge; and granddaughter, Taylan Smith.

She is survived by her husband of 55 years, Wylie D. Smith; three children, Paula Shelton, Jamie Smith, and Eric Smith; two sisters, Linda Terry and Faye Lemmond; 10 grandchildren, Blake Smith, Bobby Smith, Jordan Shelton (Halie), Austin Shelton, Abigail Terry (Leslie), Samantha Henderson (Dillon), Kaylee Smith (Hunter Brannon), Hunter Smith (Kaelyn Stephens), Zac Smith (Fawn), and Hannah Smith (Zack Clark); and four great-grandchildren.

Letha was a devoted wife, mother, sister, and grandmother. She loved her grandchildren, especially the great-grandchildren. She spent her retired years caring for all of her grandchildren and loved every minute with them. In her spare time she enjoyed doing Sudoku books, word puzzles, watching her favorite soap operas, and telling her many stories of her life throughout her years.

The family would like to express their special thanks to Letha’s grandson, Bobby, who spent his time being Letha’s main caregiver, and an extended special thanks to nurse Emily and the staff of Enhabit Hospice for all of their help and kindness during this difficult time.
