Caroline Sue Hawks, was born on February 13, 1957, in Fayetteville, Tennessee, and passed away peacefully on August 25, 2025, in Franklin, Tennessee. She was a beloved seamstress for Durango Boots, where her exceptional skills and dedication left a lasting impression on both her colleagues and customers.

Her warm spirit and kind heart touched the lives of many, and her memory will forever be cherished by those who were fortunate enough to know her.

She is survived by her loving daughter, Tiffany Hawks (Marcus Orta), as well as her brother, Michael Coleman, and sister, Anita Batlzer. Caroline also leaves behind dear friends Elizabeth Brown and Sarah Brown, who shared in her life's journey and enriched her experiences.

Caroline joins in a peaceful rest with her late husband James Daryl Hawks, brother Alfred B Coleman Jr. and her sister, Rosemarie Weller, who await her in eternal life.

A graveside service will be held to celebrate Caroline's life on August 30, 2025, at 1:30 PM at Williamson Memorial Gardens in Franklin, Tennessee. Friends and family are invited to gather as they honor and remember the fond memories shared with Caroline.
