Theo Hazel Sims, LPN, age 94 of Sevierville, went home to be with her Lord and Savior Thursday, January 14, 2010 at Fort Sanders Sevier Nursing Home. Mrs. Sims was a faithful member of Parkway Church of God in Sevierville and ministered to many families through her profession as a private duty L.P.N. Her goal in life was to bring her family, friends and those she met to a saving knowledge and eternal relationship with the Lord. Her work here is done but her influence will go on forever. Theo's favorite quote was "our life on earth soon will pass, only what is done for God will last."

She was preceded in death by her husband, William Charles "Bub" Sims; parents, Bates Smith and Mama Belle Walker; daughter, Freda Maples; brothers, Carl Smith and wife Ollie, and Stewart Smith; great-grandson Christopher Mark Sims.
