Barbara Friss Smith, 86, of Ghent, passed away peacefully with her family by her side, Friday February 12, 2021. Born November 8, 1934 in Hudson, NY, she was a lifelong resident of Columbia County in which she took great pride in reminiscing about events and stories. She will be greatly missed by many.

Family and friends will miss her zest for life, quick wit and hearty laugh, they will take comfort knowing that she is in heaven with her Lord and Savior and they will be reunited again. Barbara is survived by her daughters, Maryellen, and Paula (Doug), brothers and sister Bobbie, Gary and Kathy, grandchildren, Monique (Pastor Paul), Dennis, Brittany (Justin), and Sabrina, 9 great grandchildren, 4 great great grandchildren, along with many cousins, nieces and nephews.
