Annie Clyde was born to the late Homer Clyde and Minnie Eubanks Smith, in Samson, Alabama on January 18, 1936. She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother (Nannie), daughter, and friend. Being a mother and grandmother was her gift and calling. She devoted herself to her children and grandchildren. She was deeply loved by each and every one of them.
