She was born 77 years ago at 2 lbs. and she was known as lil Faye her entire life. She was a sweet, kind, very shy, God fearing child. As a teenager she babysat for many children. One day while babysitting a dark haired, funny, adventurous young man came by on a Shetland pony. From that day on he stole her heart. She and Doug were married for 54 years. They were blessed with Cindy, Tim and Johnny who they loved deeply and unconditionally. They had 9 grandchildren who were the sparkle in her eye, and her 8 great grandchildren were pure joy. She was a friend to all who knew her. She loved serving God and all at Faith Church her entire life. She had a servant’s heart and always lived a humble quiet life. She has now been reunited with her Doug and he has taken her by the hand to meet her Savior Jesus.
