Henry M. Smith

Epsom, NH – Henry M. Smith, 85 of Epsom, passed away peacefully surrounded by his family on Friday, June 2 at Epsom Healthcare Center.

Born on August 14, 1931 in Greenwich, Ct., he was the son of the late William and Laura (Crowther) Smith.

Henry proudly served his country in the United States Air Force for four years. After his military service, he worked at Sprague Electric before moving on to work for the State of NH in the Air Resources Division for 20 years until his retirement.

Henry was a long time member of the American Legion and a Mason of 52 years. He enjoyed woodworking, carpentry, fishing and trips to the beach and camping with his family. He was an avid bowler for 10 years in the Sunday Night Mixed League in Concord. His pride and joy was his family and 61 year marriage to beloved wife, Barbara. Always known for being a “character”, Henry brought a smile to, not only, his many grandchildren and great grandchildren’s faces, but all those who interacted with him.

Besides his parents, Henry was predeceased by two brothers – William and Bernie Smith.

He is survived by his wife, Barbara (Mosher) Smith of Epsom, sons Donald M. Smith of Epsom, Douglas E. Smith  and Pam Halen-Smith of Epsom, Dean A. Smith of Pittsfield, daughter, Debra S. Smith of Northwood, nine grandchildren, six great grandchildren and many nieces and nephews.

A private burial service will be held at the McClary Cemetery on Center Hill Road in Epsom and a Celebration of Life for all those who can attend on Saturday, August 5th from 12 – 5pm at his home on 67 Windymere Drive in Epsom.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Concord VNA (Visiting Nurses Association) in his memory. Assisting the family with the arrangements is the Still Oaks Funeral & Memorial Home in Epsom, NH.  To share a memory or offer a condolence, please visit www.stilloaks.com
