    Her Story

    [/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]Paige Taylor Smith, 30, passed away unexpectedly on August 14, 2025, just four days after the birth and loss of her newborn son, Emerick King. She is now reunited in peace with both her sons, including her firstborn who was born still.

    Her life was not without struggle. She faced the challenges of addiction and hardship, yet in recent years she fought with determination to rebuild her life and prepare for the role she wanted most — to be a mother. Her strength was measured not just in the battles she overcame, but in the love she carried through them.

    She was a daughter, sister, and friend who could make you laugh even on the darkest days, who loved with a full and generous heart, and who never stopped hoping for better days ahead. Her greatest joy was the dream of raising her children, a dream she pursued with courage until the very end.

    She is survived by her mother Tara Young, brother Tony Young, sister Hannah (Erik) Knutson and her two nieces Phoebe and Marnie as well as her special friend Jerry who will carry her memory forward with love and pride.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”profile-links-header”]

    Her Story

    [/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]Like a shooting star that passed too quickly, Samantha Leigh Patton, age 33, passed away November 14, 2025 at Houston Northwest Hospital in Houston, Texas.

    She was born on December 18, 1991, in Houston, Texas, a daughter of Patricia Patton.

    Samantha enjoyed bringing happiness and joy to those around her. Her assistance as a notable florist during the last fourteen years, was well accomplished. Starting as a general clerk for the Kroger company, she slowly moved up within the company with her great customer service skills to the Floral Department. Samantha was promoted to become a Floral Lead at her own store because of her drive, training, and determination. She had a love for wild flowers and the artistic creativity of designing floral arrangements for the seasons of life.

    Outside of Samantha’s job, she enjoyed gardening, art, camping, and animals. Her most notable trait was bringing a smile to those she loved most. Samantha’s soft and calm nature will be missed by many. Becoming a mother was her greatest joy and a dream fulfilled. She was a loving mother to her newborn son, Calcifer.

    Samantha was preceded in death by her grandparents, Richard Patton and Doris Patton, her uncle Michael Patton.

    She is survived by her mother, Patricia Patton; sister, Jennifer (Joseph) Jackson; brother(s) Aieden and Patrick; her husband Donald Pechacek; son Calcifer Pechacek; six cats Handsome, Toby, Snowflake, Phantom, Sasha, and Oreo.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”profile-links-header”]
