Mrs. Smith, 74, of Hamburg, died Friday, August 16, 2024 at the Ashley County Medical Center in Crossett. Lovingly known as “Moo Moo”, she was a native of Long Beach, California and a resident of Hamburg for the past 30 years.

She was a very gifted person and could do just about anything. Mrs. Smith loved her family and friends, road trips, her dogs, and good food. She was an excellent cook, and made sure her boys were introduced to a diverse menu when growing up, like sauerkraut and dumplings or carbonara. 

She is preceded in death by her mother and father in love, who raised her and was Grandma and Grandpa to her children, Louis and Evelyn Oldham Salewski; her father, John Cataldo; her mother, Gloria Butler; two brothers, Kevin Butler and Greg Butler, and a multitude of dogs and horses.
