Faye was friend from school she always had a,smile and will be missed.God bless her family and our prayers are with you all.
I am so sorry to hear of the loss of Aunt Faye but pray that you find comfort in knowing she is at peace and back together with Uncle Leslie. Almost every time I saw them they were together, I always thought that was so sweet. She was a funny lady and always had a smile to offer. Praying you all find comfort in the days ahead and are able to remember the good times.
I went thru school with Faye. She was such a sweet girl. Prayers for her family. Sandra Porter
