Uncle Edward and Ann Charolette:
I am so sorry for your loss. I know that Aunt Faye was a great wife and a wonderful mother and a blessed Aunt.
Aunt Faye was more of a friend to me than an Aunt when we were growing up. She treated me as someone special, she made me feel that I was a young woman instead of just a child. She, Nancy and I would do things together and go places. I guess that is because Nancy and I were older than the other nieces. She made everyone feel loved. She had the tenderest heart of anyone. I do miss her and will continue to hold thoes special times and memories in my heart forever.
I will continue to pray for and hold y’all in my heart. I love y’all. Frankie
Catherine I am so sorry I missed Fayes passing, I am thinking of you,love Frances
