Carol Larene Kendrick Smith

January 26, 1929 — April 13, 2018

Carol Larene (Kendrick) Smith, our beloved mother, grandmother, great grandmother, sister, and friend, passed away peacefully on April 13th at age 89 surrounded by her loving family.

She was born in Providence, Utah to George and Lillian (Rinderknecht) Kendrick on January 26, 1929. She grew up in Providence, one of six loving sisters. She graduated from South Cache High School where she met her sweetheart, Don B Smith. They dated for three years and were married on August 11, 1948 in the Logan LDS Temple. Carol’s beloved Don passed away in May of 2013.

Carol loved music, sports, dance, and attending events that involved her children and grandchildren. She loved family outings and gatherings, especially those at the Kendrick Family Cabin. She enjoyed having family parties and dinners and decorating for all of the holidays. No one ever came to her home without being offered a treat. She worked for Logan City School District in the school lunch program for 30 years; many of those beside her sister Ruth. She was an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and it can truly be said that she loved the Gospel of Jesus Christ and lived it everyday of her life. She served faithfully in many callings in the Church. She always enjoyed car rides to view the beauty of Cache Valley. She loved her home and the Canyon Road neighborhood. She epitomized the word “love” in every aspect of her life. Her garden and flowers were an extension of the love she carried in her heart for everyone. If you drove down Canyon Road, you could not miss the beautiful blossoms she so tenderly cared for. Her happy attitude and optimism will be missed.

She is survived by her four children and their spouses: Bonnie (Brent) Crosbie, Kohn (Arlene), Gary (Cathy), and Kaye Dawn (Dave) Falslev. She is also survived by her two younger sisters: Donna May (Bowen) and Georgenne (Saragoza). She was the loving grandmother to 17 grandchildren and 45 great grandchildren with one more on the way. She was preceded in death by her loving husband, two grandchildren, her parents, and her three older sisters: Ruth (Campbell), Fern (Perkes), and Norma (Monson).

Funeral services will be held on WEDNESDAY, April 18, 2018 at 11:00 AM in the Logan Canyon LDS Ward Chapel (located on Lauralin Drive). A viewing will be held on Tuesday evening, April 17th from 6:00 to 8:00 pm at Allen-Hall Mortuary, 34 East Center, Logan, UT., and at the church on Wednesday from 9:30 to 10:30 AM prior to the funeral services.
