Fay was a devoted mother and wife, who saw only the best in those around her. She was a constant source of strength for her husband and children. Fay loved getting involved in arts and crafts, and all of our homes are witness to her many and varied talents in crafting everything from macramé to artificial flowers to Christmas lawn decorations.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations in her name be made to one of the several foundations researching Alzheimer’s Disease.
