In Loving Support of Tammie After the Loss of her Honeybee Jeff.

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Jeff Smith , a devoted husband to Tammie ,father , family member, and friend, after his long and courageous battle with cancer. Throughout his illness, he fought with strength, grace, and determination, surrounded by the love of those closest to him.

As many know, the journey through long-term illness brings not only emotional pain, but also overwhelming financial strain. Day after day, Tammie stood by his side through treatments, appointments, hospital stays, and care—quietly carrying the weight of mounting medical bills along the way. Now, as she grieves the loss of her husband, she is also facing funeral expenses and the reality of ongoing financial obligations left behind.

Nothing can ease the heartbreak of losing a loved one, and no amount of money can replace Jeff or the life they built together. However, our hope is that by coming together as a community, we can help relieve some of the financial burden during this incredibly difficult time, allowing Tammie the space to grieve, heal, and begin navigating life after such a profound loss.

Any contribution—no matter the size—will go directly toward medical bills, funeral and memorial expenses, and immediate living costs. If you are unable to donate, sharing this page and keeping Tammie in your thoughts and prayers is just as meaningful.

In lieu of flowers and gifts, the family kindly asks that donations be made here to help provide practical support and comfort during this time.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and compassion. Your support is a reminder that even in the darkest moments, love and community still shine through.

With gratitude and love,

Tammie Smith and family
