Staff Departure: Dollie Smith

Dollie Smith, a beloved member of the Saint Michael and All Angels staff, is retiring after more than 35 years of service in November. She began her ministry as a key member of the kitchen staff at the Saint Michael School. She faithfully served delicious home-cooked meals, prepared with much love, to countless Saint Michael School children and teachers for more than 20 years. After retiring from the school, she joined the Saint Michael Church Facilities team as a Sexton where she kept the clergy, verger, and acolyte robes cleaned and pressed, assisted with parish life events, and assisted the Saint Michael Episcopal School. Almost always the first one to arrive on campus each morning before the sun was up, Dollie would greet everyone with a smile and a warm hug. She took pride in her role on staff, and her positivity and joy influenced all of us. She will be remembered fondly for her amazing potato soup that she whipped up for Veterans Day or the church staff, for her wicked sense of humor, for always seeing the good in people, and for modeling true Christian discipleship each and every day. We will miss Dollie and wish her the very best.
