Mrs. Linda Elizabeth Weir Smith, 76, of Holcomb, passed away Saturday, May 4, 2024 at her residence.  She was born August 13, 1947 in Grenada to Louis Trout, Sr. and Clarice Fite Weir.  Linda enriched the lives of many children as she worked as a teacher's assistant and later as a substitute teacher in the Grenada School District.  She was a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution and previously was a member of the Grenada Garden Club.  Linda possessed a unique artistic ability and enjoyed painting and arranging flowers.  She was a devoted member of Holcomb Baptist Church where she served in numerous capacities, most recently with the church food pantry.  She also enjoyed having been involved in the North Mississippi Walk to Emmaus.  Linda will long be remembered as a woman who loved the Lord.  She was a strong prayer warrior who was always willing to share her faith with anyone.  While our hearts are saddened by her passing, we find comfort in knowing she held in her soul the cure to death, a relationship with Jesus Christ.

Funeral services will be held at 11:00 AM Tuesday, May 7, 2024 at Holcomb Baptist Church with Rev. David Haggerty and Rev. Kevin Tribble officiating.  Interment will follow in the Woodlawn Memorial Park in Grenada.  The family will receive friends from 5:00 – 7:00 PM Monday evening at McKibben and Guinn Funeral Service and one hour prior to the service Tuesday at Holcomb Baptist Church.
