Born in Scott County, January 21, 1940, she was the daughter of the late Denver Wilson and Almeda Johnson Wilson. In addition to her husband and parents, she was preceded in death by four brothers, Denver Wilson, Jr., Richard L. Wilson, James R. Wilson and Ralph B. Wilson and one sister, Marie W. Bondurant.
She is survived by two children, Jean F. Hughes and husband Jim of Pine Knoll Shores, NC, and William R. “Bill” Farrar, Jr. and wife Brittany D. Farrar of Richmond; six grandchildren, Lindsey H. Prather and husband Brandon, and Captain James A. Hughes, USMC, and his wife Crista, Heather Farrar, Alex Farrar and his wife Larkin, William R. “Billy” Farrar, III and Samuel C. Farrar; one great-grandchild, Quinn Michelle Prather; four brothers, Charles E. Wilson, Guy E. Wilson, Jerry C. Wilson and Larry E. Wilson and one sister, Lola Merkey all of Lynchburg.
Family was the only thing that mattered to Faye, and she devoted all of her energy to it for the breadth of her life. She was a devoted daughter, sister, aunt, wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. Her quiet presence, nurturing spirit and wry humor, which she retained to the end, will forever be missed.
A private graveside service will be conducted on Thursday, August 20, 2020, at Spring Hill Cemetery.
The family will schedule a public memorial and gathering at a later date.
