Ann Helen (Lakatos) Smith went home to be with The Lord on Tuesday, January 13, 
2015 at the age of 94.  

Ann was born on Wednesday, January 21, 1920 in Granite City, IL.  

She was a resident of Forest Manor Nursing Home in Covington, Louisiana.  Prior 
to that, she and her husband were longtime residents of Covington and Folsom, 
LA.

She was preceded in death by her loving husband, Daryl G. (Dan) Smith; sister, 
Betty Dees; and brother, Frank Lakatos. 

Ann is survived by her three caring children, son, Dan Smith and wife, Beverly; 
daughter, Patricia McElroy and husband, Austin; and daughter, Linda McLain and 
husband, James.  Ann was blessed with nine grandchildren, eight great 
grandchildren, and her dachshund, Lady.

Throughout her life, Ann had many wonderful accomplishments. Along with being a 
devoted wife and mother, she was a Registered Nurse, Private Surgical Nurse for 
Dr. Alton Ochsner, founder of Alpha House, and Real Estate Agent for Mary 
Fallon.  Ann was named Covington’s 1987 Professional Business Woman of the 
Year.  A devout Catholic, Ann and her husband, Dan, were long time parishioners 
of St. John’s in Folsom and St. Peter's in Covington.  
Spending time with family and friends was her greatest joy.

The family would like to thank the staff of Forest Manor for the loving care 
she received while a resident there.
