Eddie Smoot

Clarence Edward “Eddie” Smoot, III, 43, of Madison Heights went to be with our Lord, Saturday, November 3, 2018. Eddie was born in Lynchburg, March 14, 1975. He was a self-taught painter, artist, and was an endearing man with a heart of gold. He would do anything for anyone in need. Eddie always thought of others more than his own needs and had a great smile that could light up a room, plus a laugh that would bring the house to their feet. He was a loving son, brother, father and uncle. He is survived by his parents, Susan Short of Madison Heights and Clarence E. “Chip” Smoot, Jr. of Lynchburg; brother, Carlton “Peanut” Stratton; sister, Mary Beth Cash and husband Randy all of Lynchburg; his daughter Brittanie Smoot; nieces, Catherine and husband Alex and Dixie Stratton; nephews, Junior Stratton, Chance Cowart and Will Cash; great nephew Isaac and several aunts, including one special aunt, Barbara Lambert, uncle, cousins and friends. A service celebrating Eddie's life will be conducted at 3:00 p.m. Sunday, November 11, 2018 at Whitten Monelison Chapel.
