Faye had a passion for flower gardening. Whenever she had free time, you could find her working out in her flower gardens. And it showed! She had beautiful landscaping in every home we knew. She used to say she enjoyed staycations working out in the yard vs. packing and traveling elsewhere. She also enjoyed reading, working puzzles, and spending time with family.
