Charlotte Haywood Jones was a Christian woman . She demonstrated her faith in God daily through her kind, warm, generous and loving ways to friends, family and support of her church. She truly knew the meaning of love.
She was the second daughter born to Mr. and Mrs. John (Catherine) Haywood in Rome, Georgia on July 1, 1944. She was preceded in death by her parents and her sister, Phyllis Haywood Jones.
In her early youth , Charlotte joined the St. Paul A .M. E. Church, Rome, Georgia , and was an active member there until she relocated to Atlanta, Georgia to attend college.
