Yvette Jenkins Smith passed away on Friday, May 29th, 2015, surrounded by 
family and friends, at St. Tammany Parish Hospital in Covington, LA.  
She was 79 years old.

Yvette was born on February 16, 1936 in Bush, LA to Elars and Elizabeth 
Jenkins.  She was the fourth of eleven children.  
She married Ray Hubert Smith on September 6, 1953 in St Tammany Parish, LA.

She is preceded in death by her parents, three brothers, Fredrick, T.J, and  
Wilford, one sister, Elaine and one grandchild, Bryan Keith Smith.

Yvette is survived by brothers, Milton, Dean, Leroy, and Arnold as well as 
sisters, Hilda and Josie. 
Her children with spouses include Ray Smith, Ronald Smith, Keith and Linda 
Smith, Melinda and Micheal Stein.

Grandchildren, Christopher Smith, Joseph Smith, Bobbie Nell Adams, Ashley

Hines Smith, and Samantha Stein. Great grandchildren, Connor Fauntleroy, 
Corinne Stein, Hunter Sharp, Ciara Fauntleroy, Cadence Sharp, Jasmine Adams, 
Brett Adams, and Lonnie Adams.

Yvette lived most of her adult life in Bush, LA.  She enjoyed the simple things 
in life.  She said what she meant and meant what she said.  She was a talented 
seamstress who could take a blank piece of cloth and work magic with it.  She 
donated her talents to the churches making just the right costume for Easter 
and Christmas plays.  
She was indeed a blessing and will be greatly missed.  She loved her family and 
we must admit she loved her bingo. 

Relatives and friends are invited to attend the Funeral Service in the Chapel 
of Bagnell & Son Funeral Home, 75212 Lee Road, Covington, LA 70435 on Tuesday, 
June 2, 2015 at 2:00 pm.   Visitation from 12:00 pm until service time. 

Interment will follow in Barker McManus Cemetery.
