Mrs. Lyndia Margarita Smith, age 73 of Ellijay, Georgia, passed away on March 11, 2026. Born on January 3, 1953 in Douglassville, Georgia, she was the daughter of the late Daniel Johnson and the late Ester Inez Orr Johnson.

Her faith was central to her life, and she was a faithful member of Revolution Church in Jasper, Georgia. She will be remembered for her kind heart, her devotion to those she loved, and the warmth she brought to everyone she met.
She is survived by her loving husband of 50 years, Marcus Smith of Ellijay; two daughters, Katie (Lyndon) Mayfield of Ellijay and Christie Smith of Atlanta; her sister, Mary Frances Landers of Perry, Georgia; and two grandchildren, Brynna Mayfield and Georgia Mayfield.
