Leena Crowe Thibeaut

It is with heavy heart and a little dog hair that we are announcing Leena’s passing to the Rainbow Bridge.

May 4th, 2025 may be the force of memories and tall tales be with you from ever on. Leena was a very accomplished dog groomer, bass player (according to her), partier and family woman. She was like a magnet and everyone was welcome to be drawn in by her. Ask Ron. Since they met, they were inseparable and we all guess that was before the dawn of time.

Leena is part of the Great Cherokee Nation, but her family tried to populate Smithfield Va as their own. I was only able to buy enough paper to list a few!

With much adageyude (love) here it is;

Buddy Mitchell III her loving son and her life

Liana Mitchell her granddaughter and mini me

Howard Mitchell IV grandson and the sweetest ever

Buddy Mathews bestest brother and Nation Elder

Missy Chandler sister of the heart

Stacy Hurley

Kristen Christie & Jerry Buchanan – cousins

The list is important and long, so if you are not listed, it is because I also am old and need to finish this.

So with much sorrow and smiles – DONADAGOHUI (until we meet again)

A service will be held at 1pm on Sunday, May 4, 2025 at Little’s Funeral Home, Smithfield Va followed by a burial at St. Luke’s Memorial Park Cemetery. Please join Ron and the family at 1304 Hardy Cash Dr, Hampton Va 23666 for stories, music and memories after the interment. Trinkets are okay to leave with Leena and please dress casual for her service. Online condolences may be registered at www.littlesfuneralhome.com
