I only worked with Faye a few times, and I really liked her. I brought my daughter up to Heritage Haven with me and she just loved her. Faye will be missed by all us staff at Heritage Haven. I am glad I had the chance to get to know her and work with her.

Family of Faye Angell:
I was so sorry to hear of your mother's death. I was a good friend of Judy, and met Faye a number of times. She was a delight to talk to, and I'm sure you will miss her greatly.

I always enjoyed my talks with Faye. Even thrilled her with a ride on my BMW motorcycle here in Washington, a fact she most likely never shared with Dock. I shall miss our talks. R.I.P.................Cliff

Me & Gramma - my H.S. Graduation
I feel incredibly lucky to have had Gramma Angell in my life for so long. Not many people reach my ripe old age and still have a grandparent.
This is not a time to say goodbye; it is a time to say 'thank you' for the priceless memories.
