Obituary for Arlene Sellers Smith

Today our sweet mother returned to her Father in Heaven and is reunited with her sweetheart, Gary, and her youngest son, Trent. Alzheimer’s robbed her mind but not her spark. Arlene was born March 24, 1942 to Joseph Hugh Sellers and Wanda McBride Sellers in Provo, Utah. She attended Franklin Elementary in Provo and graduated from Provo High. She was married to Gary Verron Smith on October 6, 1961 in the Salt Lake Temple. She raised her family in Orem, Utah and was actively involved in scouting. She served 2 missions to Japan with her husband and one at the Provo MTC. She served in many callings for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The gospel, her family, and scouting were her greatest joys. She is survived by her sister, Colleen (Weston) Randall; sons, Todd (KathiJo) Smith, Tracy (Andrea) Smith, Trevor (Angela) Smith; daughters, Jami Smith, Jodi (Mark) Ford; daughter-in-law, Angie Smith; 19 grandchildren and 9 great-grandchildren.
