The graveside service will be conducted at 11:00 A.M., Saturday, May 31, 2014 at Staley Memorial Cemetery, corner of Souther Field Road and Mayo Street, Americus, Georgia.  

Lue W. Smith Edwards was one of the seven children of Will Smith and Alma Fuller Smith.  Lue was born March 17, 1928 in Ellaville, Schley County, Georgia, where she grew up with Allene, Charles, Cora, Mary Dean, Cornelia, and William.  Living on the border of Schley and Sumter Counties, she acquired her education from both school systems.  She also accepted Jesus Christ as her personal Savior and joined the band of Christian believers at the old historic Marietta Methodist Church.

Lue was a loving and caring mother, daughter, sister and friends.  She instilled in her children and grandchildren the important of an education.  She was a positive person with encouraging words.   She taught her family and friends that Jesus was the right way, the truth and the life.

She leaves a legacy of golden memories to her beloved children, including Willie Gene Smith, Greensburg, North Carolina, Louise Edwards, Americus, Georgia and Clyde Leon Edwards, Valdosta, Georgia; five grandchildren, Dameon (CaSandra) Cumming, Kisha Nicole Cumming (Eric) Evans, Felicia Smith, Terence Edward and Andreas Edwards; ten great grandchildren; three siblings, Mary Dean  (Norman) Smith, Brooklyn, New York, Cornelia Sellars, Macon, Georgia and William (Lorene) Smith, Ellaville, Georgia;  two sisters-in-law, Jessie Hopkins, Americus, Georgia and Inez Trice, Saint Petersburg, Florida; a host of beloved nieces and nephews, including one devoted, Lewis Hopkins, Americus, Georgia; a host of beloved cousins, including several devoted  E.

My thoughts and prayers are with the entire family but especially Louise who I know loved her mom dearly. I pray that you find peace in all the memories you all made together as you were there everyday. She will be missed but God knows best. Always know I am just a phone call away. Be blessed.
