Sybil Faye McAbee Smith, age 92 of Monticello, departed this world for her Heavenly home on Sunday, December 2, 2018, at Belle View Estates Care Center in Monticello, AR, surrounded by her family and friends.

She was born October 16, 1926 to the late Claude and Gladys Breazealle McAbee in Hamburg, Arkansas. She was a homemaker, a Christian, and a person who loved all she came in contact with.

In addition to her parents, she was also preceded in death by her husband John “Dusty” Smith, her sister Mary McAbee Lochala, and a great-grandson Dustin "Rooster" Ferguson.

Survivors include her daughter Diane Ferrell (Tommy) of Monticello, her son David Smith of Monticello, and her daughter Denise Frost of Monticello. She is also survived by five grandchildren, six great grandchildren, three great-great grandchildren, and a host of nieces and nephews.
