Rubert Sutton Smith

January 01, 1946-December 07, 2022

 

Rubert Sutton Smith, son of Wilbert and Ruby (Burris) Smith, was born on January 1, 1946, in Mountain Grove, MO. He passed away on December 7, 2022, in Osage Beach, MO at the age of 76. 

Rubert was born and raised in Success. He married Karen Hollenbeck on February 23, 1975. Two sons were born to this union: Chad and Jared.  

He was preceded in death by his parents, Wilbert and Ruby Smith and 3 brothers, Charles, Gary and Royce. 

Rubert is survived by his wife Karen of the home;  sons Chad (Ann) Smith of West Plains, MO and Jared (Kelsi) Smith of Houston, MO. Five grandchildren: Shelby, Haden, Cody, Cali, and Allie and two great grandchildren: Kinleigh and Jax Rubert; a brother, Bruce (Judy) Smith of Houston, MO; two sisters, Mary (Norman) Lankford of Springfield, MO and Reta (Roy) Gaither of Bucyrus, MO as well as a host of nieces and nephews. 

Rubert had a great love for Christ his Savior, his wife, and family, especially his two sons. It was rare that he did not talk to his sons several times throughout the day to discuss a shared love of farming and the latest family antics. Rubert also loved to drive log trucks and took pride in loading and delivering the largest payload of logs to the mill.  He was a very kind man who would do anything for anyone.    

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions in his name may be made to the Houston R-1 School District to be divided between the Future Farmers of America and the Football Team.
