Kimyata Kwenshay Haynes

Kimyata Kwenshay Haynes, 31, affectionately known as “Nu-Nu”, resident of Charleston, Missouri died June 7, 2020 in Sikeston, Missouri.  She was born December 26, 1988 in Sikeston, Missouri to Beverly Haynes of Charleston, Missouri and Gary Warfield of  Memphis, Tennesee.

She attended Charleston Public Schools and St. Mark Baptist Church in Charleston, Missouri under the leadership of Pastor Frankie Hall Daniel.

Nu-Nu was a hard worker and found gainful employment at a number of places including:  Front Desk Clerk at a hotel, In Home Nursing, and Subway.

Whatever the challenge, she was always up for it.  She was currently building her own brand. Nu-Nu was instrumental in the #Charleston Strong t-shirt campaign.

She was very out spoken and sometimes goofy but was always a loving and caring mother.  She enjoyed dressing her children up and would spend all her money, down to her last dime on them.  She thought she was a great cook, but the only people who thought so were her children.  Nu-Nu loved them so much.  She loved hanging out with her sisters and friends. They can hear her asking, “Guess Whhaattt?”

She is preceded in death by two brothers, Vernon Haynes and Tobias Moore, maternal grandparents, Joe Willie and Luvine Haynes, paternal grandparents, James Robert and Sammie Lee Warfield and one niece, Ver’Taisha Haynes.
