Anari Breeze Smith

OBITUARY

Anari Breeze Smith born July 14, 2014, was called home on Thursday, November 17, 2016. Her final day was spent with her mother and loved ones in Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital, listening to movies and music.

Anari loved to look at her pretty face in the phone’s camera, or in the mirror. She used to love animals, especially dogs. She also loved music, watching television, and playing with her Mom’s phone. She was very adventurous. She loved nature and playing outdoors. She loves cars - both riding in them, and trying to drive. She loved to run. She loved her daycare, Kiddin’ Around, and all of her teachers and friends. Everyone witnessed a different, special piece of Anari. Her favorite fruit was strawberries, and she also loved chicken nuggets, waffles, noodles, and chips. Anari’s life may seem too short to many, but those who were touched by her understood that the quality of her existence far exceeded the quantity of time in which she lived.
Anari leaves to cherish her many memories, videos, and photographs, and is survived by her loving mother Shameka Smith; her loving father, Montavia Lattimore; her siblings, Jakiya Lattimore, Maleek Lattimore,
