Boothe, Gypsie Agee

 

FLOYD PRESS January 11, 1990
101-year-old countian dies Funeral services were scheduled Wednesday for Gypsie Agee Smith Boothe, who passed away Monday, Jan. 8, 1990 at the age of 101 years old.

The Floyd County native was born Dec. 16, 1888 to Everett Agee and Minerva Sweeney.  When she was only three years old, both of her parents died. She was then raised by her grandparents, the Agees.  Her sister, Ella, now deceased, was raised by another family about six miles away. According to information Boothe had told her granddaughter and a friend at the Skyline Manor Nursing Home, Boothe picked chestnuts, dried apples, and peaches to use for income for the family during her childhood days.  After her grandparents died, she went to live with her cousin and his wife.

Boothe attended the County Line School until she was about 14 years old.

She and her first husband Elmer Smith lived in Illinois, Ohio and West Virginia during their marriage.  Although a homemaker most of her life, she worked shucking corn and in canning factories during her stay in Illinois.  Her husband Elmer was killed in a West Virginia coal mining accident.

Boothe's second marriage was to Flenore Strickler. (Christian Flunoy Strickler)

Her last husband, L. A. Boothe, died in 1976. (Lemuel Archer Boothe)

A friend at the nursing home said Boothe loved to read, and during Boothe's first marriage, she told the friend, she and her husband passed the time at night by reading to each other. Boothe also enjoyed sewing and quilting.  She was a member of the Methodist church.

Boothe is survived by: two sons, R. V. (Bobby) Smith of Riner, Clifton Smith of Floyd; a stepdaughter, Alice Kingrea of Floyd; a stepdaughter-in-law, Elzada Boothe of Floyd; seven grandchildren, Faith Radford, Nila Spence, both of Floyd, Betty Tucker of Callaway, Robert C. Smith, Barbara Saul, both of Riner, Dandra Gay Grim, Debbie Young, both of Christiansburg; twelve great-grandchildren, Danil Vernon Smith, Robert Anderson Smith, Chris Saul, Kellie Young, Brandon Young, Amy Ingram, Beth Grim, Aaron Grim, all of Christiansburg, Rosie Henninger, Roanoke, Johnny Radford, Kristy Bowman, Gary Spence, all of Floyd; three great great grandchildren, Holly Henninger of Roanoke, Amber Radford, Kayla Radford, both of Floyd; five step grandchildren; twelve step great grandchildren; and four step great great grandchildren.

Funeral services Wednesday were held at 2 p.m. at Gardner Funeral Home Chapel with Rev Barry Lell officiating.  Interment was in the Wilson Cemetery.
