Listen to Obituary

Victoria "Vicki" Lynn Smith, aged 71, of Louisville, Kentucky, passed away on December 22, 2025. Vicki was a cherished wife, mom, nana, sister, aunt, and friend, who also experienced the joy of sharing her life with several beloved furbabies. Her professional journey began at Super America, but she later pursued her passion for education, earning her Bachelor's Degree before continuing her career at LG&E, where she retired after many dedicated years.


Crafting brought Vicki immense joy, particularly crocheting, through which she lovingly created baby blankets for her grandchildren. Additionally, she had a gift for cooking and baking, delighting her family with her renowned pumpkin bread during gatherings. Vicki had an open heart, welcoming anyone in need as a mother or grandmother figure, and she leaves a profound impact on all those fortunate enough to have known her.


Vicki was born on October 12, 1954, in Louisville, Kentucky, to Lee and Helen (Tatchell) Goldsmith. She is preceded in death by her father, Lee Roy Goldsmith; her mother, Helen Sue Goldsmith; her son, Timothy Saylor; and her brother, Steven Goldsmith.


She is survived by her devoted husband of 30 years, Lester Clyde Smith; her children, Robert (Abby) Saylor and Connie (Keith) Blessitt; her grandchildren, Christopher Saylor, Candace Stevens, James Blessitt, Erica Saylor, Zachary Blessitt, Jessica Saylor, Savannah Saylor, Caleb Saylor, and Alyssa Saylor; along with six great-grandchildren. Vicki is also survived by her sister, Virginia (Donald) Block, and numerous nieces, nephews, family members, and friends who will forever cherish her loving memory.


Visitation is scheduled for Sunday, January 4, 2026, from 2:00 PM to 8:00 PM, and will continue on Monday from 9:30 AM to 12:30 PM at the Newcomer Cremations, Funerals & Receptions - Southwest Louisville Chapel, located at 10304 Dixie Hwy.
