In memory of
Martha Smith
November 27, 1954 - August 9, 2025
It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Martha Bridget Smith, a beloved daughter, aunt, friend, and community leader, whose spark for life touched everyone she met.
Martha lived life with an energy and passion that was impossible to ignore. She loved nothing more than spending time on the golf course, sharing laughter and camaraderie with old friends, or watching a great game unfold. Basketball held a special place in her heart. Whether she was coaching, cheering from the sidelines, or catching every thrilling moment of March Madness, her enthusiasm was boundless.
The generations-old family cottage was Martha’s sanctuary. It was there, surrounded by nature and cherished traditions, that she found her greatest peace and joy. Her devotion to her parents was unwavering. She cared for and loved them deeply, and she was also a supportive aunt whose love and encouragement meant so much to her family.
Professionally, Martha dedicated herself to Toronto Community Housing, where she changed lives and built communities with tireless dedication. Her work was never just a job. It was her calling. She approached each day with high energy, an indomitable spirit, and a commitment to lifting others up. Those who knew her will remember her as someone who would do anything for the people she loved.
Martha’s legacy will live on in the communities she strengthened, the friendships she treasured, and the countless lives she touched along the way. Her memory will forever remain an inspiration to live with joy, passion, and kindness.
