The Movie Star (Susan Hayward) who helped build a country church in Georgia

Susan Hayward was a huge movie star! She was an Oscar winner and very popular. After a failed first marriage, she found love with her second husband, F. Eaton Chalkey. Together they lived on their farm in rural Carrollton, GA. Having converted to Catholicism they donated a portion of their land to helped build a church. They also raised funds for the church. They are both buried in the church cemetery of their beloved church just yards from their farm.

A beautiful story and so sad too. My aunt died of a brain tumor also, in 2001. Thank you for this story. Mary
