SANDRA ANN “MIMI” DOMPIER
1940-2017
Sandra Ann “Mimi” Dompier, born on the 8th day of January, 1940 in Houston Texas, passed away peacefully, Tuesday, the 25th of April, 2017.
Mimi was preceded in death by her father, R.E., “Bob” Smith and her mother, Vivian Smith, her oldest daughter, Sandra Ann Austin, and her sister, Bobby Sue Cohn. The family she loved will cherish her memory forever and they are her husband of 37 years, Thomas Dompier, daughter, Susan Hunt and her children, Katherine and Mason Hunt, III, daughter, Stacey Schultea, and her husband, Joey, children, Cody and Shelby, daughter Shelly Mulanax, and her husband, Jerome, children Allie, Abbie and Cameron. Nieces, Kirby Cohn McCool, Lindsay Cohn Holstead and Courtney Cohn Hopson.
One final gift Mimi graciously allowed her family and friends, was the opportunity to visit with her, hold her hand, and tell her how much she was loved by so many. During this time she told each visitor, one by one, how much she loved them, with many touching moments to be remembered.
Mimi was a graduate of St. John’s School and Greenbrier Academy, West Virginia, a Houston ICON and Philanthropist, following in the footsteps of her beloved parents, Robert Everett (R.E. “Bob”) Smith and Vivian Leatherberry Smith. The love they had for the City of Houston, was instilled in Mimi and she spent her Seventy-Seven years giving back to the city she loved.
She has touched so many lives through her efforts with various charities and had a fierce love for all things with a positive impact on children’s lives and education. Her many endeavors will serve our community for many years to come.
Throughout her lifetime, she has frequently been honored and served on many Boards contributing countless hours and resources. You seldom saw her name because she preferred not to be seen or heard, but to contribute quietly. This earned her a great deal of respect from all who had the privilege to be in her company.
You know Mimi disliked long obituaries, so this is it!
