On February 26, 2022, Mrs. Christine Kay Hewitt Whitehead peacefully passed away at her Hohenwald home surrounded by her loved ones. She was born in Ontario, CA on March 31, 1950, to the late Donald and Leslie Jean Smith Hewitt. Along with her parents she was preceded in death by her grandmother Oma Louisa Avila, sister Jean Rendon, and a nephew Joseph Ersland.
Mrs. Christine is survived by her loving husband Johnny Whitehead; her children Robert C. Young (Sherry), Dennis D. Young III (Bonita), and Regina Young Leigh (Robert); stepchildren Adam Whitehead, Steven Whitehead (Savannah), and Laura Whitehead Horner (Steve). She also leaves behind to carry her memory on her grandchildren Jennifer Young Keller (Paul), Jamie Givens (Delana), Ryann Givens Watts (Brandon), Haylee Givens Keeton (Dustin), Adam Green (Kassidy), Nicole Givens (Grace), Karly Givens, Dianna Young (Dallas Meisenheimer), Lynzie Givens, Robert D. Young, Andrew (Seven) Young, Xaiver Whitehead, Zowie McBreairty, Olivia McBreairty, Korbin Horner, Tristen Horner, Dallas Whitehead, Shiloh Whitehead, Tinzly Whitehead, Molly Whitehead, and Claire Whitehead; 20 great-grandchildren; sisters Karen Trimmer and Stephanie Berry (Herschel); and a host of nieces and nephews.
Christine was a true Tennessee Titans fan always settling in on Sundays to cheer her boys on. In the downtime she would get lost in the chapters of many books by her favorite author with her sweet dog Toby by her side. Nothing brought her more joy than the time she was able to spend with family and watching all her grandbabies.
2 Timothy 4:7 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.
