May G. Brock

May G. Brock, a beloved member of the Washington, Pennsylvania community, passed away peacefully on September 24, 2025, at Canonsburg Hospital. She was born on June 21, 1926, in Washington, PA, and her life was a tapestry of love woven through devotion to her family and service to her community.

May was a woman of remarkable spirit and resilience, deeply involved in various organizations that supported and uplifted others. Her heart was particularly dedicated to helping military families through her active participation in Gold Star Mothers Inc., as well as her contributions to the Library Veterans Association and Post 175 of the American Legion in Washington, PA. May spent countless hours volunteering, always putting the needs of others before her own, a testament to her selfless nature and unwavering commitment to those who served our country.

In her personal life, May found joy in the simple pleasures of life, including her love for playing bingo and cards. These hobbies not only brought her happiness but fostered a strong sense of community and camaraderie with her friends and family.

She leaves behind a loving family who will cherish her memories. May is survived by her dear granddaughter, Amanda Ingram, who undoubtedly bears the imprint of her grandmother's warmth and kindness. She also leaves behind her great grandchildren, Damien and McKenna, who will grow up hearing stories of their great grandmother’s generous spirit. May’s legacy continues with her nephew, Joseph "Sunny" (Vicki) Miller, and another nephew, Victor Miller, and many other nephews and nieces who remember her fondly.

Throughout her life, May faced the profound sorrow of losing loved ones, including her sons, Glenn L. Smith, who was killed in action, and Richard Sturgill. She also mourned the passing of her sisters: Nany Bell, Dorothy Crowe, and Mary Lou Whipkey, as well as her brothers: George, Boyd, John, Glenn, and Kenneth Smith. The loss of her father, Glenn Smith, and her mother, Goldie (Noble) Smith, left an indelible mark on her heart, shaping her compassionate outlook on life.

While May G. Brock has departed from this world, her extraordinary spirit, dedication to her community, and the love she shared with her family will live on in the hearts of all who knew her. She was a shining example of love, resilience, and service, leaving a legacy that will inspire generations to come. May she rest in peace, embraced by the arms of those she has lost along the way.
