    We are so saddened at the loss of Aunt Faye our sweet and loving Aunt. She was one special lady and loved by all who knew her. I will forever remember her smile and laugh. I will also never forget the crush she had on my husband, she would say...bring Mac to see me, and I would say why??? her reply was always....so I can look at him. He looks like Tom Selleck. I would tell her she could have him and she'd laugh and laugh. Well, he kissed her forehead and told her how much we loved her on Saturday evening and we are so glad he did. She would have liked that. She will be missed so very much.
