Tiffany Rae Ragan

Tiffany Rae Ragan nee Smith, 55, of Sinking Spring, passed away on Saturday, February 8, 2025, in the care of St. Joseph's Hospital and Compassus Hospice.

She was born in Reading to the late Harry William Smith, who is survived by his wife, Debra Smith of Bernville, and the late Jacqueline Lee (Karish) Franckowiak, who was the wife of the late Tyrone Franckowiak. Tiffany graduated from Reading High School in 1987.

For sixteen years Tiffany took great joy from her work as a certified ophthalmic assistant. Previously, she worked in retail.

Tiffany was an independent and strong person with a witty sense of humor and a deeply spiritual approach to life. She loved her children immensely, and she enjoyed being a stay-at-home mother. She considered those years with her children the best years of her life. It was important to her to encourage her children to enjoy life and have fun. In her personal time, she enjoyed reading anything and everything, cooking, and gardening.

Her memory will be treasured by her children, Cady Rae Monasmith of Reading, Riley William Monasmith and companion Tiffany Ko of Philadelphia, and Gage M. Ragan of Camp Lejeune, NC. Zuzu, Tiffany's treasured four-legged companion, also survives her.
