A 1979 graduate of Doyle High School, Denise attended cosmetology school and went on to own several successful hair salons, with Z Hair being her most cherished accomplishment. She lived life to the fullest—cruising on her beloved Harley, cheering for her Atlanta Braves, and finding joy in her daily 420 ritual that those who knew her will fondly remember. Denise was a loving mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, and friend to many.
Preceded in death by her mother, Hazel Marie Smith; and grandson, Julian.
She is survived by her daughter, Savanah (Ryan) Hannah; father, Jack Smith; brothers, Scottie Wade Smith, Bryan (April) Smith; grandchildren, Delainie and Colton Hannah; nieces and nephews: Chelsie (Kellen Cleveland) Smith, Shane (Lauren) Smith, Devan (Jessica) Smith, Cassidy (Jake) Jolley, Austin (Bailey) Smith, Stephanie (Jared) Robinson, and Ellysa (Matt) Extine; as well as a host of extended family and friends.
At Denise’s request, there will be a private graveside service held.
