Shirley Morrow
Smith
Jun 10, 1942 — Dec 8, 2020
Shirley "Bobbi" Morrow Smith, 78, longtime resident of Harrison, TN, peacefully departed this world to live life everlasting with her Savior on Tuesday, December 8, 2020, surrounded by her loving family. Bobbi was born to Estelle and Estell "Blondie" Morrow on June 10, 1942 in Abbeville, GA, the first child of a large family of six children. At an early age, Bobbi developed a love of reading, often found with one of her daddy's favorite western novels under a shady tree. As a senior of Birchwood High School, she scored in the top five of seniors nationwide in Mathematics. She did not know it at the time, but this was to be her greatest talent, and it allowed her to establish her own highly successful accounting firm, Tax Solutions, in 1991. Growing up in the country, she developed an enduring love of nature. Exploring and hiking was a favorite in early years. Fishing was one of her favorite pastimes and remained so throughout her life. She loved travel and adventure, taking one long summer to explore the continental United States, Mexico, and Canada. Christmas was her favorite season of the year, and it is fitting that she passed from this world at this time of year. Bobbi loved shopping regardless of whether it was a high-end store, or a garage sale. She loved both, and lived for her finds. She was an amazing cook, and remained so until the end.
Share your memories and express your condolences on our guestbook.
Bobbi was preceded in death by her husband of 55 years, Lynn T. Smith; her parents, and brothers, James and Larry Morrow.
She is survived by her daughters, Kimberly "Cherice" (David) Somers and Marsha Smith (Karen Weintraub); grandsons, Matthew (Abby) Somers and Nicholas Somers; sisters, Linda (Fred) Crumley and Shirley Waller; brother, Terry Morrow (Stephen Williams), as well as several nieces and nephews.
She was also the loving companion to her dogs, Felix and Alfie, her loyal and faithful friends who will miss her terribly.
The family would like to give special thanks to her caregivers, May Buckner, Rebecca Waller, Brenda Hill, Deidre Sorenson, and Rachel Pride, as well as to Hospice of Chattanooga.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the American Heart Association or to the Susan G. Komen Foundation.
