Stacy Dawn Kinney's Obituary
Stacy Dawn Kinney of Southaven, MS, age 48, passed away Friday, June 28, 2024 from complications associated with a bowel obstruction. Stacy was born on June 9, 1976, the youngest child to Ronald and Glenda Kinney.
Stacy went to school at Harding Academy, kindergarten - 12th grade. She graduated in 1994. After graduating high school, Stacy then pursued her dream of becoming an esthetician and make-up artist. Stacy was an artists at MAC in Macy’s for a number of years. She used her talents to create beauty. She related to people through make-up. She loved making people feel good about themselves. She later went on to work at Gould’s Salon in Collierville. She made many friends along the way. Friendships she always cherished.
Stacy will be remembered as a daughter, sister, aunt, friend and most importantly-dog mom. She had a genuine and giving spirit that she often didn’t want acknowledged. Stacy loved animals and donated to local rescues and shelters regularly. When Christmas came around there would be several lucky dogs who received extra special gifts of blankets, toys and treats. Her own dogs were her “babies” and were spoiled beyond rotten. Cha-Chi and Honey have passed on but little Nugget seems a little lost lately without her.
Stacy is preceded in death by her mother, Glenda and her brother-in-law, David. She leaves behind her loving father, Ronald, sister and best friend, Tonya and her favorite (and only) nephew, Matthew.
A service honoring Stacy will be held Friday, July 5, 2024 at Memorial Park Funeral Home 5668 Poplar Ave. Visitation will be at 12:00 noon and the service will directly follow at 1:00 pm.
