Sarah Suzonne Hall-Smith, loving mother, grandmother and great-grandmother went home to be with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on June 12, 2024. She was born on March 20, 1940, to Sarah Edwina Fly Street and Tyree Quincy Davis both of whom have preceded her in death. Sarah graduated from New College SF with a BA degree and later earned a Master degree from Merritt College of Oakland, CA. She practiced pediatric nursing for 20+ years and was a licensed day care provider for many children. Later she applied her entrepreneurial talents to owning and expanding a successful barber shop.

She was a member of Allen Temple Church located in Oakland, CA. She was happy at community work in her neighborhood providing food, clothes, and shelter to people recovering from drugs and alcohol. She was proud of being in recovery for 40+ years.

She leaves behind her daughters, Sherie Hall- Caldwell (Oakland) and Valorie Hall (Atlanta), her sisters - Annette Evans (Pine Bluff, AR), Barbara Neill (VA), Pastor Shanae Dowell (Bishop Dowell) (Danville), and Theresa Cunningham (Danville), her brothers Cornell (Janet) Davis (Danville), Tyree (Dana) Davis (Danville), George F.
