Leggett Smith

Ms. Rosie Lynn Leggett Smith, age 72, a native of the Walker Springs Community and a resident of Austin, TX was born March 6, 1950 to the parentage of the late Mr. Ernest Leggett and the late Mrs. Leola Jones Leggett. She departed this life February 25, 2023 at her home in Austin.

At an early age, "Doll", as she was affectionately known, accepted Jesus as her Lord and Savior by uniting with the family church, Pilgrim Rest Baptist Church. She never forgot her roots and remained a member throughout life.

She was educated in the Clarke County School System and attended Harper High School, Jackson, AL. Upon moving to Texas, "Doll" furthered her education at San Antonio School of Cosmetology. She was a Master Cosmetologist and Beauty Instructor. Her hobbies included interior design, travel, enjoying television shows, and listening to music. She retired from JC Penny.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by six brothers; Ernest Leggett, Jr., George Leggett, Cleveland Leggett; Jerry Leggett; Thomas Leggett; Sandy Leggett, and three sisters, Theresa Leggett, Linda Leggett, and Liza Leggett.

Loving memories will be cherished in the hearts of her loving and devoted family: one brother, Curlee (Shirley) Leggett of Pittsburgh, PA; two daughters, Gwenderlyn (Fred) Smith of San Antonio, TX, and Dr. Stella Smith of Austin, TX; and a host of other relatives and friends.
