Charlotte M. Smith, age 62, of Russellville, passed away on Tuesday, September 07, 2021 at Helen Keller Hospital with her family at her side.
Charlotte married her high school sweetheart and they enjoyed 46 wonderful years together. She was an amazing wife, mother, and grandmother. She worked for years as a medical transcriptionist. Charlotte was very talented, wrote music, wrote poetry, played a guitar, and was at one time even in a band. She loved fishing and hunting with her husband and was a diehard Auburn fan. There are so many wonderful memories shared by the family, so many good times, and they had a good life together.
“We love you more more universe!”
