Haven Haas Barshaw, 23, formerly of Kings Mountain, NC, passed away on June 17, 2023 at Duke University Hospital in Durham, NC. She was born in Cleveland County, North Carolina. Haven had a devout Christian faith that was evidenced by her love and compassion for others. Haven enjoyed competition cheer for several years and was passionate about her career in interior design. She possessed the will of a champion and was confident in everything she set her mind to. Haven was a loving person who always put others needs ahead of her own. She could be described as a born leader to whom people were drawn to, feisty, and head strong, yet always compassionate to everyone she met. Haven loved everyone but had a small circle of friends whom she would do anything for. If you were loved by Haven, you knew you were loved. She was a wonderful wife, daughter, granddaughter, sister, niece, cousin, and friend whose strength, determination, and love will live on in the hearts of others for all-time. This world has lost a fighter with grit, fire and a determination who was substantially stronger than most of us.
