August 7, 1940 - July 21, 2024
A graveside service to remember and celebrate the life of Chariety Bell Arrowood will be 11:00 a.m. Friday, July 26, 2024, at Woodlawn Cemetery in Claremore. Chariety passed away at her home in Claremore with her daughter at her side on Sunday, July 21, 2024. She was 83.
Chariety was born in Claremore, OK on August 7, 1940, to John Noah and Delia Mae (Casey) Kennan. She was raised and educated in her birth community and graduated from Claremore Public Schools. On February 22, 1958, at Memorial Heights Baptist Church in Claremore, Chariety married the love of her life Don Arrowood. Their marriage was gifted with two children, Beth and Steve. Chariety helped provide for her family working at the old Gentry Drugstore in downtown Claremore, Amerada Hess Corporation as a Keyboard Operator and at Jerry Minnick Carpet Store. When her children were young, Chariety made the decision to become a stay-at-home mom and care for her family.
A lady with a wide variety of interests and hobbies. Chariety had an appreciation for antiques and along with her sister-in-law Martha Arrowood, they ran the Mission Antique Mall. She liked camping at the lake a lot, especially when all the family could be there. Chariety was known for her cakes and cupcakes, and she made sure she didn't miss anyone's birthday. Known for having a sweet tooth of her own, Chariety looked forward to the carrot cakes her nephew Ray brought her or the gallons of Braum's ice cream, cookies, Dr Pepper, and Hershey bars grandson Jon showed up with. You could rest assured she did her very best not to share any of it with other family and friends.
In later life; after Don retired, Chariety enjoyed the cross-country trips in their motor home making sure they stopped at any RV parks that were located next to a casino. She wouldn't always leave as a big winner, but she sure enjoyed playing the slots. Chariety became the family historian and enjoyed documenting the family genealogy. Garage sales were another interest, and you could only hope if you were in the car she didn't see any garage sale signs. If she did you were certain to spend a few hours there.
A lady that has left a legacy and huge footprint that will live on in the lives of her family and friends. Chariety is survived by her children, Elizabeth Ann "Beth" Arrowood and Steven Allen Arrowood and wife Shelley, grandchildren, Jon Noah Sappington and wife Alexandria, Nathan Keith Sappington, and Ty Preston Arrowood, great grandchildren, Kaden Noah, Mason Jonah, and Bayli Sue Sappington, and a host of nieces and nephews and extended family. Chariety was preceded in death by her parents, husband of over 63 years Don, sisters, Ruby Barrow, Betty Tuggle and Midred Reavis.
