Charles "Chip" Allyn Francis

Charles “Chip” “Charlie Brown” Allyn Francis, the smiling, happy, and precious infant son of Jessica and Joshua Francis, passed away suddenly into the hands of Jesus on Monday, December 23, 2019 at their home in Mt. Pleasant.

He entered this world with a healthy scream on October 7, 2019, at Maury Regional Medical Center in Columbia. Chip loved to keep his parents awake all night as he laughed, smiled at them, and wanted to be held. Charlie Brown had the longest eyelashes and loved being fed.

Pleasant; siblings, JJ Mowery and Jeorgia Francis; maternal grandparents, Stephanie Workman and Michael Workman; paternal grandparents, Jayne (Jason) Overstreet and Jimmy (Kristie) Francis; great grandparents, Jeannie Tice and Neita Workman aunt, Brittany Workman, Ashley Cox, and Taittumn Runions; uncles, Jonathan Francis, Jarred (Tabetha) Francis, and Matt Cox; great uncles, Cainon (Candance) Workman and TJ (Brittany) Tice; cousins, Kaybree Workman, Cameron Baker, Carson Baker, Khloe Baker; great aunts, Melba Jacobs, Melinda (Barry) Hodge, Arlene Guthrie and Jennifer (Evan) Chatman.
