Selena Kay (Edwards) Caraway

Selena Kay Edwards Caraway, 44, of Longview, passed away on Tuesday, March 19, 2019, at the UAMS Hospital in Little Rock.  She was born on November 27, 1974 and was a resident of Ashley County most of her life.  

She was extremely creative and enjoyed working on various arts and crafts including building crosses, painting, and writing poetry.  She also enjoyed working puzzles, watching her Lifetime movies, and relaxing by the fire on her deck.
