Along with subbing, Smith has taken on another duty that is dear to her heart. “About five years ago I got a call from Union Seminary asking me to fill in at Concord Presbyterian Church in Ever- green until their new student pastor came,” she said. “The student never came and I’ve been filling in two Sundays a month ever since. I love doing it.” As to why someone at the age of 86 would take on such tasks, Smith said, “I fear the time when I won’t be able to do anything. I enjoy this and see it as my legacy. I think God gives older people perception and it helps a younger person to be told by an older person their value and talents. I believe students need to hear from someone what their gifts and graces are and to know that you have high expectations.” Smith subs two or three times a week. “I do lament that penmanship and public speaking are not emphasized,” she said. “I intend to sub until I die and minis- ter until they find a full-time person. I’m blessed to have good health, a good mind, and good friends. I’m happy as a lark.”

It takes courage to run for elected office and commitment to do the job once elected. After serving on the Fluvanna School Board since 2009, Vice Chair Camilla Washington (Columbia) decided to not run for re-election. Chair Carol Carr (Rivanna) was appointed in February 2012, then ran for and won the seat in November that same year. Carr also decided to step down.
