I met Ms. Faye while serving in the Marine Corps at Fort McClellan & again as an instructor. She did alterations for many a military member that went through training. Later, after I retired & I moved to Ohatchee we became good friends. I continue to miss our talks about her life, sons & grandchildren. I think of her every time I drive past her home. She is greatly missed.

My deepest sympathy to Faye's family. She was a much loved friend of mine from Oxford Fashions and beyond. She was very gifted, she made prom dresses, feature twirler uniforms, bridal dresses and a tuxedo for a toddler all from photos or a sketch. All of this for my girls, there is no telling what she did for others. We spent many hours talking and I never heard Faye speak ill of anyone. She was truly one of the best kind.

I worked with Faye at Oxford Fashions and I have so many good and fond memories of her. She was beautiful inside and out! I will be praying for her family. She will be missed. She did not call me Judy, she always called me That Girl referring to me as Marlo Thomas. To know Faye was to love her!
