After 10 years of dedicated service, we celebrate the retirement of Marlene Knoll.

Since 2016, Marlene has been a friendly and compassionate presence at Smith Funeral Home, assisting families during visitations and services. She also stepped into a full-time role as Office Receptionist, what was meant to be short-term turned into three years of dependable leadership, before returning to part-time assistance.

Marlene has been an integral part of our team, and her kindness and commitment have made a lasting impact on the families we serve. At Smith Funeral Home, it is our staff who make the difference, and Marlene truly exemplifies the level of care we strive to provide.

Marlene, thank you for your years of service. We wish you all the best in your retirement.
