Nancy Robin Smith Plunk, a woman of grace and distinction, was born on July 23, 1940 in the Gilchrist Community in Adamsville, TN to the late Lee Roy Smith and Wilma Martin Smith. It is with heavy hearts that we announce her passing on November 6, 2023 in Savannah, Tennessee at the age of 83 years, 3 months, and 14 days.

In 1958, Nancy embarked on a lifelong journey of love and companionship when she joined hands in marriage with Jimmy "Coon" Plunk. Sadly, Jimmy preceded her in death on January 10, 2011. Together they shared cherished moments and built a strong foundation for their family.
