What a wonderful, classy and special lady Faye was. I will always remember her with the fondest of memories. I know it is difficult that she is no longer of this earth, but now she is seeing Aunt Jane face-to-face and is now one of God's own angels.

Faye was a wonderful and funny person. I worked with her for many years at Century Furniture and was able to spend a day with her after she moved to the coast. She could always make me laugh and smile on the bad days. My thoughts and prayers are with all of her family and friends.

Gary & Inez, Faye is at peace now and in no pain. We had so much fun over the years, she was a class act. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for either of you. Robin and Bart, your mom was wonderful. She was so good to me when I was a teenager and I used to keep the both of you. She was my idol. In later years when I worked with her she was the best co-worker I will ever have. We had so much fun. Keep the memories of her in your hearts forever. Remind Stacy, Kayla and Jacob how much she loved them. When I would see her she was always talking about them. I know she was special to all of you and so many others including myself. She will be missed but she surely left her mark on all of us. I love all of you and I will keep you in my prayers.
