It is with hearts heavy with sorrow that we share the heartbreaking update of the passing of Lana Ayla Smith, who left this world last night, surrounded by the love of her family, on her birthday. Lana was just 34 years old, yet the impact of her life reaches far beyond the years she was given.
Though her time on earth was far too short, Lana’s life was rich in love, faith, and selfless devotion. She was a woman whose heart was anchored in God, whose strength was rooted in prayer, and whose greatest joy was her family—especially her four beautiful children, who were the center of her world. Everything Lana did was fueled by love for them, and her presence will forever live on through their laughter, memories, and the values she poured into their lives.
Lana had a way of touching people that words can hardly capture. She was gentle yet strong, compassionate yet resilient. She carried grace even through hardship and remained a light to others during her most difficult days. Her faith never wavered, and her loved ones find comfort in knowing that she is now at peace, wrapped in God’s eternal embrace, free from pain, and resting in perfect love.
The passing of Lana leaves an ache that cannot be measured. A mother, daughter, family member, and friend has been taken far too soon. Birthdays are meant to celebrate life—but Lana’s birthday will now stand as a powerful reminder of both the beauty of her life and the depth of her loss. Even so, her family chooses to hold tight to the memories, the love shared, and the promise that this goodbye is not forever.
The family of Lana Ayla Smith wishes to extend their deepest gratitude to the community for the overwhelming outpouring of love, prayers, and support during this unimaginably difficult time. Every message, every prayer spoken, every donation, and every quiet act of kindness has been felt deeply and has provided comfort and strength in the midst of grief. Your compassion has been a reminder that Lana was truly loved and that her life mattered immensely.
As the family begins the painful journey of navigating life without her physical presence, they humbly ask for continued prayers—especially for her children, who now carry her legacy forward. Pray for peace, strength, and healing in the days ahead, and for comfort that only God can provide.
Lana’s story does not end here. Her love lives on. Her faith lives on. Her spirit lives on in the hearts of all who knew her.
