Wren Community-Miss Charlotte Faye Keith entered eternal rest at Shearer Richardson Nursing Home in Okolona on Saturday afternoon, August 23, 2025 after a period of declining health. She was 77 years old. Born with developmental disabilities on July 17, 1948 near Doddsville, Sunflower Co., Miss, with developmental disabilities, she was the daughter of the late Clarence and Glader Townsend Keith.

After the death of her parents, she was cared for by her brother and sister in law, Donald “Don” and Kathy Keith in the Wren Community for most of the remainder of her life. She was blessed to have lived in the watchful care of Brandi’s Hope Assisted Living in Tupelo for 12 years. Nonverbal, Charlotte had a happy smile, a bubbly personality and enjoyed drawing, doodling and imagining with pen, crayon and notebook. She loved coloring books and always loved her family.
