JoAnn Winborne Smith

Funeral service for JoAnn Winborne Smith will be 1 p.m., Wednesday, July 6, at Pentecostals of the Miss-Lou Church in Ferriday, LA,

with burial in Mrytle Memorial Cemetery in Winsboro, LA. Visitation is from 11 a.m. until the time of the service on Wednesday.

Reverend Jeremy Howington and Bishop Gary Howington will officiate.

Mrs. Smith, 85, was born to Howard and Ann Winborne on December 26, 1936, in their home in Winnsboro, LA. She closed her eyes on

this world and opened them to see her Lord on July 3, while living with her daughter and son-in-law in Summit, MS.

She is preceded in death by her parents, Howard and Ann Winborne; two brothers, Gerald Lee Winborne and Howard Winborne, Jr.; and two sisters,

Pearlie Welch and Juanita Nichols.

JoAnn was known by many names; mother, mama, memaw, Jo, and Aunt Jo, to name a few. She has been a loving wife to her husband and a fantastic

mother to her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. She has been a faithful member of Pentecostals of the Miss-Lou Church for 50 plus years.

JoAnn gave her life to the Lord and lived for Him faithfully. Her departure has left a big hole in our lives that can never be filled, but we are rejoicing that

she has reached her ultimate goal, heaven. She has permanently had an address change.

JoAnn is survived by her husband of 62 years, Delsie Ray Smith; one son, Roy Smith, Sr. (Annette); one daughter, Donna Foster (Rodney); four grandsons,

Roy Smith, Jr., Dillon Smith, Tyler Foster (Aimee), Chase Foster; four great grands, Ellie Kae Smith, Kaden Foster, Kynleigh Foster, Skylar Foster; three sisters,

Myrtis Little, Dorothy Patten (Gordan), Tabbie Chamberlain; and one brother, Russ Winborne; as well as a host of nieces and nephews.

Pallbearers will be her grandsons, Roy Smith, Dillon Smith, Tyler Foster, Chase Foster, friend of the family, Brian Thornhill, and a great nephew, Nick Nichols “Ber Nick”.

Honorary pallbearers will be her only great grandson, Kaden Foster.

The family would like to thank the staff of Intensive Home Health for their love and tender care of our loved one. Also, a huge thanks to Mrs. Geraldine West,

better known as Glo, who took amazing care and loved our mom like her own. Glo went above her duties of her job, she gave her love with no boundaries.

Thanks Glo, from PaPa, Donna and Roy.
