Danny Eugene Smallwood

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Danny Eugene Smallwood, 86, a devoted member of Rolling Hills Church of Christ, who peacefully left this world on October 10, 2024. Born on September 11, 1938, in Frenchburg, to the late Tommy and Mary Hale Smallwood. Danny cherished his roots and found joy in the simple pleasures of life.

Throughout his time on this earth, Danny wholeheartedly embraced the beauty of nature, often taking long walks to admire the world around him. He possessed a knack for fixing things, finding solace in tinkering with vehicles and lawn mowers. An avid reader of the Bible, Danny found peace and guidance within its pages, living each day with faith and kindness.

A lover of Westerns, particularly Gun Smoke and Walker Texas Ranger, Danny found comfort in the familiar tales of the Old West. However, his greatest joy came from helping others, whether it be his neighbors or strangers in need. His generous spirit and compassionate nature touched all who knew him.

Above all, Danny treasured spending time with his daughter, Tammy Smallwood Imel (Tony Banfield); granddaughters, Summer Imel and Sierra Imel; sister, Edna Yocum and a special son, Matthew Munday (Salena).

In addition to Danny's parents, he's preceded in death by his loving wife, Margaret Congleton Smallwood and siblings, Emert Smallwood, Eleanor Smallwood, Buck Smallwood, Robert Smallwood, Harley Smallwood, Richard Smallwood, May Sparks, Molly Peck, Hazel Hale and Nora Yocum.

The funeral service to honor Danny's life will take place at Rolling Hills Church of Christ on Tuesday, October 15, 2024, at 10:00am. Prior to the service, a visitation will be held on Monday, from 5:00pm to 7:00pm, at the same location. Following the service, Danny will be laid to rest at Machpelah Cemetery. Bro. Jerry Carmichael and Bro. Eddie Ingram will be officiating.

Pallbearers: Matthew Munday, Tony Banfield, Jacob Munday, Daniel Munday, Bill Peck and Rick Peck

In his memory, let us reflect on Danny's legacy of love, generosity, and unwavering faith. May his spirit continue to touch the lives of those he leaves behind, and may his memory be a guiding light in our hearts forevermore.
