Leominsrter - Christiane Mary Smith of Leominster, MA, formerly of Lunenburg, MA, passed away peacefully at home surrounded by her loved ones and pets, on November 3rd, 2023 after a long battle with cancer. Her guard cat, Sciliy, never left her side, while her faithful canine, Wick, took charge of caring for her, her long term boyfriend, Scott Gauthier.
Chrissy was a graduate of Lunenburg High School, class of 1993 and of Rob Roy Academy class of 1995. After many years of dedicated artistry in cosmetology she began her 20 year career as a veterinary technician at Pepperell Veterinary Hospital and Fallon Animal Hospital.

Chrissy also loved to cook and share her culinary masterpieces with others, cooking for anyone in need and many veteran charities. She always put the needs of others before her own, and would be the first person to volunteer to help her friends and family.
