Faye loved the fellowship of family and friends. She always enjoyed activities with her Hilldale Baptist Sunday School classmates, especially encouraging and ministering to the needs of sick and homebound members, never knowing she would someday be the recipient of this same spirit of love outpoured by her new Sunday School class at First Baptist Church of Newnan. Faye touched the lives of many people with her smile and generosity, and she maintained her trademark positive attitude all the way to the end.
