SHERMAN - Jeanie M. Smith "Our Hero," 60, died Aug. 5, 2008, surrounded by her family, at her home. She was born Sept. 15, 1947, the daughter of George H. and Nina M. (Morgan) Cullens. Jeanie spent most of her adult life in Sherman caring for her home, flowers and family. She was an inspiration to everyone she came in contact with. She unselfishly put herself second, even with all her health problems she had faced and dealt with for the past 18 years. She was an amazing mother and exceptional wife. She has taught many people the real meaning of what courage is and never lost faith in the Lord. She is survived by her husband of 34 years, Daniel Smith; three children, Rena Harrington of Wilmot, New Brunswick, Tammy Cullins of Sherman, Jason Smith and his wife, Linda, of Stacyville; six grandchildren, Morgan and Josh Goodine, Matthew and Aaron McAvoy, and Wyatt and Chandler Smith; one great-grand-daughter, Lindsay Jean Goodine; a very special aunt, Midge Cullens; and her pet cat, Tommy. The family thanks all the people who helped her at Eastern Maine Medical Center, Penobscot Valley Hospital and Visiting Nurses of Aroostook and a very special thank you to Diane Lane. Friends may call 1-3 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 10, at Calvary Baptist Church, Stacyville, where funeral services will be held 3 p.m. with the Rev. Donnis Willigar officiating. In lieu of flowers, those who wish may donate to St. Jude's Children's Hospital, care of Memorial and Honor Program, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, 501 St. Jude Place, Memphis, TN 38105. Arrangements by Bowers Funeral Home, Island Falls.
