Potter Smith, Kathleen
It is with great sadness but peace of heart that we announce the death of our mother, Kathleen (Polly), she has left us and passed into God’s keeping. She was predeceased by her father, Walter, her mother, Katie, and sister, Phyllis. She was the widow of Donald (Buzz) Smith, the much loved and treasured mother of Ian Smith (Shirley), Nancy Marston (Delmar) and Peggy Blouin, (Jules). She was the cherished “Gram” of eleven wonderful grandchildren and thirty great-grands who affectionately called her “Gigi”. Her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews will remember the lovely hooked rugs and paintings she gave them. To all who loved her, she will always be remembered for her personal strength in the face of life’s challenges, her generosity, genuine caring and unconditional love for those around her. We have been blessed by her life. She has completed her journey here on earth and we now say goodbye until we meet again. In accordance with Mother’s wishes, a private family service will be held. Mother grew up in Magog; when she graduated, she had the honor of being the student with the highest marks in the Eastern Townships and was awarded the Narcissa Farand Scholarship. Mother went to Macdonald College to get her teaching diploma and came to Danville to teach at the age of eighteen at the Academy. The principal of the school thought she would make an excellent French specialist so she returned to college to get her Special Certificate in French. Mother taught in Danville, where she met our father, she then taught in Scotstown for one year and when she returned to Danville they were married. After World War II, Mother taught French at the High School in Asbestos for several years and later on, she taught younger children at A.D.S. Elementary School. Several of her students, young and old, have told us Mother was the best teacher they ever had, which spoke well of her dedication to teaching. We will miss our mother but it was time for her to go, to wish otherwise would be selfish for we could not have known her better or loved her more deeply. "No time on earth is long enough to share with those we love or prepare our hearts to say goodbye."
