Carol Smith, Silverton, OR—The community of Silverton is deeply saddened by the recent passing of Carol Smith. Carol, aged 66, passed away at home on Sunday night with her sister Melody by her side. She had been a resident of Silverton for nearly 20 years, known for her friendly demeanor and cheerful conversations with those she met.
Carol’s passing has left a significant emotional and financial impact on her sister, Melody. Both sisters relied solely on social security for their income, making it challenging to cover the unexpected expenses of Carol’s funeral. In response, Joyce West, a close friend of Melody’s for almost 30 years, has organized a GoFundMe fundraiser to assist with the costs associated with honoring Carol’s memory.
The fundraiser, titled "Assist Melody in Honoring Carol’s Memory," aims to raise $1,550. Unfortunately, no donations have been received yet. The funds will be used to cover the expenses at Unger Funeral Home, which has given a discount of $405, but the remaining balance needs to be paid by August 13th to avoid additional charges.
Joyce West has expressed her gratitude for any support during this difficult time, emphasizing the importance of community help in such situations. The fundraiser not only aims to alleviate the financial burden on Melody but also to honor the memory of Carol, who brought joy and warmth to those around her.
We are deeply saddened by the loss of Carol Smith. Our thoughts and prayers are with Melody and all who knew Carol during this challenging period.
