I pray for your family every night. My life changed after seeing the aftermath of the accident. Several times a day, I pass that spot and it is now my "bridge of Faithe".....GOD BLESS AND BE WITH THE FAMILY ALWAYS!

I remember Faithe attending birthday parties for my nephew when you lived across the street from my brother's family. She was such a sweet little girl. I wish I had known the lovely young lady that she grew up to be. My thoughts and prayers are with you. God Bless

I was more than shocked to hear about the loss of Faithe. This young lady, woman rather, was such a sweet, kind, and loving human being. I know that she will be missed by many and forgotten by none.

Shane & Tammy,
We are so sorry for your tremendous loss.
There are no words that can ease your pain but we want you to know that we are praying for you both. We didn't know Faithe very well but what we did know of her, we loved. Tammy, I will never forget when you and Faithe came to the hospital when Aimee was born. Faithe bought Aimee a cute little pink stuffed dog that rattled, we still have that little dog. She was a very sweet and good hearted young woman and she will be greatly missed by a lot of people. If there is anything at all you need, don't hesitate to call. God Bless You both and all your family in this time of sorrow.

To Faithe's Family, I had Firearms and Markmanship Class with her,the Sat. before this.I am truly sorry. When I got to class this Sat. morning, Mr.Whisman gave his condolences to the class, I had only met her that one class, I liked her very much, we would of been good friends, her nature and she was alot of fun that day! I feel like I am very blessed to of got only that one day, I am truly sorry for your loss, I hate I didnt get to spend anymore time with her, miss her too,no longer than I got to know her, she made quite an impression on me and class wont be the same without her, my prayers and sympathy's go out to her family and friends.

Tammy,
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

THERE ARE NO WORDS TO DESCRIBE HOW I FEEL! I MISS HER SO VERY MUCH:( FAITHE WAS SO FULL OF LIFE & SO BEAUTIFUL!!! MY HEART IS BREAKING, BUT NOT NEAR WHAT TAMMY AND SHANE ARE FEELING. SHE ALWAYS HAD A SMILE ON THAT BEAUTIFUL FACE AND THAT ALWAYS PUT A SMILE ON MY FACE:) I LOVE HER LIKE SHE WAS MY OWN AND I ALWAYS, ALWAYS WILL 4EVER!!! LOVE ALWAYS APRIL!!!

Shane & Tamera,

I am so sorry for the the loss of your daughter. My prayers are with you all during this heart-breaking time. May God bless you and comfort you.

Tammy and Shane,
I don't know what I could possibly say other than that we are truly sorry for your loss. Know that you are both in our thoughts and prayers in this time of great sorrow. We pray that you will know Gods comfort throughout this most difficult time.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Tammy & Shane,
I am so sorry for your loss, because it is my loss as well. I have known faithe ever since she was born and always delighted in seeing her at the many functions that occured in the Town and her coming up and talking to me about being a police officer. I remember when she was still a young teen and begging me to allow her to do a ride-along with our officers. I could tell that she was going to be a very dedicated police officer if she was ever given the chance. I can not tell you how wonderful it was to know that she was in a class I was teaching at WCC, finally seeing her take the steps to pursue her dreams. I actually did not recognize her as Candice because I knew her as Faithe all these years. I hope God heals your heart soon as I know mine will hurt as well. I will always remember this bright and shiny person that graced my life for such a short time. I will miss her.

TAMMY,THERE ARE NO WORDS,JUST KNOW THAT THERE IS A BIGGER PLAN AND ALL THINGS MUST HAPPEN FOR A REASON. JUST KNOW YOU HAVE BEEN IN MY PRAYERS!! YOU AND YOUR FAMILY HAVE MY DEEPEST SYMPATHIES.

Im so sorry to see her go so soon. We had firearms class together that day and I had a blast talking and getting to know her. She was a bright person, and full of life. I still play the conversation we had in my head over and over and it saddeneds me that i didnt get to know her even more. But i know God has a plan for all of us and he is taking excelent care of her. Everyone is in my thoughts and prayers. We will truely miss her.

Candice Faithe "Sissy" Aker

Mom and dad,
I don't even know where to start, I love faithe so very much. She was my sissy. We grew up together, every weekend at your house and sleeping in the bunkbeds, to even burning each other while trying to make mac and cheese! I love her so very much, and can't wait to see her again. She is the one who got me started on tattoo's...She would always steal my favorite green pens or markers because she believed they jumped from my locker to her...and green was her favorite color too...I will never forget all the times she spent at my house, and mine at hers! I love you sissy and miss you so very much, i can't wait to get to see you again. Say hello to nana and Zak from me. I love you sissy, mom and dad, you were my second family!

Tammy & Shane,
Words cannot express the sorrow I feel for you. You have my deepest sympathy. Faithe was such a sweet young lady and I will miss seeing her and talking with her. She was such a blessing to have in class in 8th grade and I will always remember what a wonderful child she was. I still keep the dolphin music box she gave me on my coffee table and I will treasure it always. I am so sorry that I was out of town on a fieldtrip on Wednesday and could not make it to the service. Please accept my sincere condolences.
You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Becky Teed

Although I did not know your daughter ,It breaks my heart to hear of such a precious young lady taken too young. My nephew died at age 18 and our whole family has been saddened since. May God bless you and be there in your time of need.

Tamera and Shane,

I am so sorry for your loss. Faithe was in my Math class at WCC and I thoroughly enjoyed having her as a student. Very nice person.

My thoughts and prayers go to the family of my friend. Faithe was my best friend in Middle school, I can't imagine how I would've gotten through without her. We lost touch through the years but, her friendship always had an effect on my life. I will love and miss her until the day we meet again.
Love and prayers,

As Faithe rests in our loving Father's arms, I pray we all find comfort and peace during this time of loss. I pray all will live with the knowledge that we will see her again in our Lord's Heavenly Kingdom.

Tammy and Shane,
The pain and sorrow you must have now is surely unbearable. Our thoughts and prayers are with both of you and the rest of your families.

Our hearts go out to you in this time of need. You all are in our thoughts and prayers.
God Bless

Dear Tammy,

You are right...we usually only see each other during "tragic times," but I'm celebrating one thing right now...someone told me that you said Nana led Faithe to the Lord, and I believe that! I have a peace that we will see her again when we make it to Heaven. You are in my thoughts and prayers. If you need anything, let me know. <3 Always, Dayna

Shane,

Through it all, we all had a huge friendship, and we were one big family, here at Birchwood when you & Faithe lived here. That was, in large part, because of Faithe's loving, bubbly personality. I still saw her often in the community, and still introduced her to people as my "baby sister, Faithe." Please know that I love you very much, and I am praying for you daily. Keep living life strong...let's see her again on the other side, when God calls us Home! <3 Always, Dayna

Tammy,
We only just found out. We are praying for you all and know only God can help you through such a devastating loss. She was a sweet and kind child. She will always hold a special place in our hearts. Just know you are in our thoughts and prayers. If you need us just call.

Shane,
Thinking of You,wishing you hope in the midst of sorrow, comfort in the midst of pain.

Dearest Tammy,
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I am so sorry for your loss.
I am here for you! I love you!

Tammy and Shane,
I'm so sorry for this peious life taken so soon. Your family will always be in my prayers. I love you all so much.

May God comfort each heart that is affected and saddened from the loss of this sweet girl!! Tammy your in my thoughts and prayers!! I love you!! You will be so sadly missed Faithe!!

Tammy and Shane,
We are so sorry for your loss. We enjoyed the many times Faithe came to visit us and to, in her words, "hang out for awhile." We will miss her.
Janice, Sabrina, and Caleb Roark.

Tammy and Shane,
I am so very sorry for your loss. I pray that God will give you strength to get through this terrible time. Tammy, I am so grateful for the friendship we shared many years ago and the great times we had. Trish still thinks of you as her "big sissy". Always know that I am here if you guys need anything.

Our family is praying for your family during the death of Faithe Akers/we wish you our condolences during the death of your daughter, sincerely yours,Jean and Brandon Groseclose of Wytheville Virginia

Tammy sorry for your tragic loss. No words could express your loss. You will be in our prayers. May god bless you. Love always. Your cousin Keith Michelle and Khorey Hull

I never had any siblings, so I always thought of you as my little sister. I remember looking after you on the bus, and playing with frogs in our pond. Whitney, Carson, and I love you very dearly. We wish we would have had you over more often. My god rest your sweet soul.

In my all too few interactions with Faithe, she was very kind, sweet and gentle. I regret having not known her better, but will never forget the kindness she expressed to me. My heart goes out to the many whose lives she touched as they grieve her tragic, untimely loss. May God be with you all.

Baby Girl, ther are no words, only memories and more love than anyone can imagine. Until we see one another again, there will not be a day that I will not think of you, pretty Faithe with those beautiful blue eyes, and that pretty smile. I know you were carried on the wings of your NaNa, and your cousin Blake, and I know you are waiting on your mom and dad and making a place for them. I love you sweetheart, and I miss you.
Cousin Tammy

Tammy, I cannot even imagine your grief and loss. How does someone heal? One day at a time honey, I will be praying for your comfort. Love ya. Cecil

Precious sweet Faithe. Each year I saw you grow and change but still always that sweet face and those special eyes remained the same and are formost in my mind's eye when I think of you. I so remember watching your mommy teach you to eat with a spoon and how you would stand beside me and rub my arm with the sweet, pure love of a 2 year old. You were accepting me as Aunt Donna and it saddens me so much that we didn't stay closer as you grew up but the once a year Christmas' brought us all together as the tight family we all were. You will be missed so very badly by us all in the years we have left on this earth but in the end we will ALL be together again. You are free now baby...FLY and LOVE like you never have before. I love you now and forever and let us all remember, she was named FAITHE.

May God bless you and your entire family. Faithe was a beautiful and very caring young woman. She will be missed by everyone who knew her.

faithe,i love you so much. you are the best friend a girl could have. i will miss you always,
koty conway, wytheville va

I did not personally know your daughter, but if the love and extreme sadness that was shown by the young people at Wytheville Babtist Church on Sunday was any indication, she must have been a very much loved and admired young woman.

we all will miss you, but you will always be in our thoughts.

Faithe you were such a Thoughtful, Loving, Caring, and Giving young woman. You brought such joy, and laughter to my life. You are Loved, and Missed VERY Much. You will Live in my Thoughts, and my Heart Forever. I love you Baby.
