Celena Nicole Withrow, was born on October 29, 1975, a daughter to the late Thomas Withrow and Loretha Burton Withrow, who survives. Celena was a 1993, graduate of Bowling Green High School and attended Kentucky State University. At an early age she was baptized at the New Bethel Baptist Church where she was a dedicated member of the Choir and an Usher. In these later years Celena joined the New Birth Missionary Baptist Church where she was a dedicated member, and member of the Missionary. Celena was previously employed by Goodwill Industries and Hope House Ministry.
There were a lot of things that Celena enjoyed in life such as watching movies, listening to music, watching the news, watching the Tennessee Titans, and going to the Med Center Adult Day Care but nothing could compare with the love and care Celena had for her three children, and time spent with all her family especially those little people.
Celena's health did not always allow her to be where she wanted to be or do all the things she wish that she could, but her faith kept her strong as she fought a good fight and received her reward as she entered her new home on Thursday, July 3, 2025, at the age of 49 years, 8 months and 4 days.
To cherish the memory of Celena Nicole Withrow, she leaves her children, Cam'Ron Withrow, Ciara Withrow-Lewis, and Camdyn Withrow-Lewis; mother, Loretha Withrow; brothers, Chris (LaToya) Withrow, Daniel (Dee) Withrow; uncles and aunts, Dwight (Marilyn) Marshall, Johnny (Lisa) Burton, Rev.

Godmother (Anna) Beason; a host of other relatives and friends. Celena was preceded in death along with her father Thomas Withrow, by grandparents Richard & Mildred Osborne, Douglas & Carolyn Withrow.
