Mrs. Faye Queen: Obituary

Mrs. Faye Queen, age 84, of Hiawassee, passed away Friday November 7, 2014 at her daughters home in Hiawassee, GA. She was born on June 8, 1930, in Towns County Georgia. She was the daughter of Herschel and Ida Hooper Barnes. She worked for many years in the shipping department of Carolina Dress Co. in Hiawassee.

Her garden made her happy, as did her family whom she loved very much, and they loved her. She attended North Mt. Zion Church of God where she was quite a prayer warrior. She lived each day with a strong faith in her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, that’s what kept her going.
