LARUE SMITH

BRIGHAM CITY - Emma LaRue Robinson Smith, 81, peacefully passed away surrounded by her loved ones in Brigham City, Utah on Thursday, November 29, 2001, after a long and courageous struggle with parkinson's disease.
LaRue was born July 31, 1920 in Franklin, Idaho to Ernest Wilburn (William) Robinson and Jane Helen (Jennie) Comish. She attended and graduated from Seminary and High School in Preston, Idaho in May 1938.
LaRue married Stephen Bybee Smith on August 4, 1938 in the Logan Temple. They lived in Lewiston, Utah for 22 years, then moved to Brigham City in 1960. They have lived in and loved their neighborhood for 42 years.
She is survived by her husband, Stephen Bybee Smith, Brigham City, UT; children: Jean (Phil) Pope, Layton, UT; Alan (Gina) Smith, Brigham City, UT; Craig R. (Marilyn) Smith, Brigham City, UT; Debbie (Dee) Walker, Corinne, UT; daughter-in-law, Beverly Smith, Layton, UT; 21 grandchildren, 19 great-grandchildren.
Preceded in death, one son, S. Wayne Smith, her father and mother, brothers Floyd and Wilburn, sister Helen Butterworth and twin brother and sister Dennis and Denise.
LaRue loved the gospel, her family and friends. She served selflessly in the community and in many church calling throughout her life. A highlight in her life was when she and Stephen served a mission for the LDS Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Missed will be her never failing ability to exhibit great faith, her warm smile, her gentle nature and her beautiful silver hair.
