Silvia Nell Smith Noah, 42, passed away Sept. 28, 2015. Silvia was born to Don and Sue Smith on Feb. 24, 1972, and grew up in Burnet, Texas.

She was an independent woman with a strong personality, living her life on her terms. She loved animals of every kind but most especially dogs. Anytime she found a stray, she would take it home with her to eventually give it to a good home or keep it herself.

She was a CAN for 25 years and was passionate about caring for people. Being a single parent, she always gave her all in every challenge she faced. It is those principles that she provided to her daughter, who lives the same way.

If you needed it and she had it, she would give it to you. She loved helping people and doing for others. She will be deeply missed.

Silvia is survived by her daughter, Krista Noah Garcia, and granddaughter, Emily, of Lake Tawakoni; parents, Don and Sue Smith of Lampasas; sister Vickie Seiley and husband Tommy of Burnet; brother, Donnie Smith and wife Karen of Lampasas; sister Crystle Smith of Marble Falls; sister Mary Kay Fite of Burnet; nieces, Debra Schooley and Jennifer Selby, both of Burnet; nephews, Michael Seiley of San Diego, California, and Donnie Smith of Lampasas; and numerous great-nieces and great-nephews.

A graveside service is Oct. 2 at Tow Cemetery.

Arrangements by Edgar & Jenkins Family Funeral Home, 109 N. Main St. in Burnet, (512) 756-4444. Go to jenkinsserves.com to offer condolences.
