Faye grew up in the Dutch Valley area and attended Dutch Valley Baptist Church. She lived there for many years before moving to Oliver Springs, TN. She enjoyed reading, sightseeing and watching old movies. She had been in declining health for some time but she always kept a positive attitude. She was fondly known as Faye to all of her family and friends.

She attended the old Marlow School in Anderson County.

She worked for many years at the Alexander Inn in Oak Ridge. She was excited to see the restoration of the building and enjoyed keeping up with all the details about it. She was looking forward to its completion.

A special thank you goes out to Methodist Medical Center doctors and nurses for all of their loving care.
