Services for Betty Jo Smith were held Thursday, April 4, at Gospel Temple Baptist Church. Officiating was Pastor Anthony E. Darrington Sr. Mrs. Smith, a Sinai Hospital retiree, died Wednesday, March 27 in Lahser Hills Care Center. She was 68. Born Betty Jo Gainer Oct. 16, 1944, in Birmingham, Ala., she received her formal education in the Detroit Public Schools system and graduated from Eastern High School – now Martin Luther King Jr. Senior High School – in 1963. She was employed as a phlebotomist at Sinai Hospital for 34 years. Mrs. Smith is described as one who valued life and knew how to enjoy it. She liked dancing, watching Lifetime TV and HGTV programs, bowling, listening to Motown artists, socializing at her home with family and friends, and her greatest joy: “hanging” with her grandson Kyle. Mrs. Smith and her twin sister, Carol Nolen, were the oldest in a family of close-knit siblings and were inseparable until Mrs. Nolen’s death in 2011. They loved their church family at Gospel Temple and both sang in the choir. Mrs. Smith’s survivors include her son, David; three sisters, Merie Gainer, Ann Tyson and Darlene; two brothers, Jerome and Mark Gainer; her grandson, Kyle; her niece, Christine Nolen, who was like a daughter, and many other relatives. Burial was at Grand Lawn Cemetery. Swanson Funeral Home handled arrangements.

A graduate of Elmore County Training School, she married Edward T. Floyd Sr. and they had two sons. After moving to Detroit in 1964, Mrs. Floyd united with First Mission Baptist Church. In 1978 she joined Greater Ebenezer where she became a member of the Nurses Board and soon served as its chairman and personal nurse to Dr. Murphy for more than 25 years. She also worked in the church’s kitchen and day care center. She especially enjoyed the Greater Ebenezer annual Palm Sunday concerts, bowling gardening and cooking. Mrs. Floyd was preceded in death by her husband of 55 years, Edward Sr. She is survived by a son, Edward T Jr.; three grandchildren, Clifford DeShawn, Christopher Earl and Ashley Denise; two sisters, Annie Lois Hamilton and Mattie L. Lewis; two brothers, McKinley Means and David Lewis, and other relatives. Burial was at Grand Lawn Cemetery. Arrangements were by Swanson Funeral Home Inc.
