She will be gone but not forgotten. This past Friday, a grand celebration took place at the Jackson Parish Hospital in honor of Daphne Smith, who retired after 10 years of dedicated service.

“We wish Daphne the best in the new chapter of her life,” said JPH Chief Executive Officer, John Morgan. “She will be missed by us all.” 

Smith came to the JPH in 2013, benefitting the many patients she attended to through her passion in nursing. In 2018, she continued her career by joining the JPH Case Management team.
