Jeanne (Renick) Smith

Our precious Mom, Jeanne Renick Smith, is back in the arms of our Dad and her Heavenly Father as she passed away from this Earth on May 24, 2023. 

She was the daughter of the late J. Bertram and Irene (Stoughton) Renick of Mars, PA.

Jeanne attended Slippery Rock State Teacher’s College before graduating from the University of Pittsburgh.  It was while at Slippery Rock that she met the love of her life, Van Andrew Smith.

Together, they transformed Jeanne’s Great Grandfather’s dairy farm into Stoughton Acres Golf Course, which they owned and operated from 1964 until Van’s death on May 4, 2019.  Jeanne continued to run the business until the end of her life. 

They are survived by Sally (Rick) Hangliter of Seven Fields, Debbie (Jeff) Loughry of Grove City, and Doug (Leslie) Smith of Bishopville, MD; and seven grandchildren: Evan (Megan), Scott (Kathryn), and Todd Hangliter and Troy, Katie, Brett, and Sarah Loughry.  Jeanne is also survived by a sister, Marylin Hankins, of Yardley, PA. 

Jeanne chose to live her life with J. O. Y.- Jesus First, Others Second, and Yourself Last.  She was passionate about holistic healthcare, politics, and her faith in Jesus Christ.  Her greatest happiness came from helping others. 

All are welcome to join Jeanne’s family for a Celebration of Life Service,  held at 7:00 pm Sunday July 9, 2023 at Community Alliance Church, 800 Mercer Road Butler, PA 16001.
