Burchell “Burch” Smith, (60), of Hogansville, passed away on Aug. 19, 2023.
He was born on Oct. 7, 1962, to Zelma Smith and the late Paul Smith in Pineville, Kentucky.
He was a Master Plumber by trade with over 30 years of specialized experience and worked for McKenney’s Inc. before his retirement.
In addition to his father, he is preceded in death by his sister, Janet Helferich.

He never met a stranger and was always willing to help others whether it was in sharing wisdom or helping with a plumbing project.
Survivors include his mother Zelma Smith; children, Austin Smith and his wife Taylor and Monica Anderson and her husband Josh; granddaughter, Lily Rae Anderson; siblings, Keith Smith, Timothy Smith, and Tanya Yarbrough; many loving extended family members and very dear friends.
