Her journey began January 13, 1962 as: \u201cTooty Smith\u201d (a name she was quick to change) to her loving parents, Janet Seslar and the late Ed Smith. She was the first girl-child for both parents. We\u2019ll call her a legend for lack of a better word. She kept those around her laughing. During in her twelve year cancer battle, she took the high road and made the DRs and nurses laugh with jokes and puns. She fought so hard, for so long. Adrie was, most of all, genuine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
She was preceded in death by father Edward Smith, sister Kimberly Smith, and grandmother Clara Pierce. She is survived by her mother, Janet Seslar, her daughter, Alexandrea Burton, married to Darrell Burton, along with their children: Pierce and Kennedy Burton. Her surviving siblings are sisters Connie Smith, Terrie Smith, along with brothers Charlie Seslar, Andy Seslar and Chuck Duncan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
