She had a vibrant personality, a wonderful sense of humor and could make you laugh in the midst of your worst day. She was friendly, loving, kind, and generous to family and friends. She was always lending a helping hand to anyone she thought was in need, and had a special love for her nieces and nephews. Her favorite pastime was hanging out with family and friends, listening to music and spending time with her beloved dog, Gizmo. Yasmin made her transition on May 22, 2019 in the early morning hours at St. Francis Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee. Yasmin was preceded in death by her father Johnny Lee Smith.
