Uncle Dean and family,
We are all saddened by the loss of Faye. She was so much fun and the memories of our times at the farm always make us smile. We will be toasting her from Wisconsin on the 21st (and quite possibly several other times as we remember the joy she brought to us) We love you.

Carley Phillips (daughter of niece on Dean's side) wrapped in the blanket "Auntie Faye" made her. It wraps her in love every night.
