Dear Faber Family,
I was very sorry to hear of Winifred's passing. She was a wonderful person and dearly loved by all her children.
I fondly remember the wonderful times we had growing up attending parties and family gatherings at the Faber home in Manchester, CT.

Dear Fabers,
I have to say Fabers because I'm sure I know almost all of you. We are so sorry for your loss.
She loved you so much. I can remember how adoringly she would look upon you.
While she lived with Martin, Therese, Little Martin and Mathew, you made her feel comfortable and cared for and loved.
I wish I had known her in her younger days. It sounds like she was an amazing woman. That's why you guys are so terrific.
What a great life she had, despite the last few years. She is surely in God's hands. What a great place to be. Praise the Lord.
God bless you all during this hard time. May you rest in peace Mrs. Winifred Daniels Faber.
Love,
Ramona Randazzo, Marion Gammons and family
