Softball brought me a lot of great things in life and up there at the top are the Reinings. I was lucky enough to start playing ball with the twins in second grade and through them I gained a third set of the sweetest grandparents. Len and Faye always treated me like I was one of their own and I remember sitting in the back seat on many car trips listening to Gramma tell her stories- she always had the best ones. She had the best heart and always made you feel like you were the most important person in the world when you were around her. I'm very thankful for the time I spent with them growing up and I'll never forget the look on her face when I walked in her room as her "surprise visitor." :)

Just learned of Faye's passing to her final reward.  She & I attended Chilocco, and Southeastern State at Durant.  Then we shared an apt. in OKC for about 8 months in 1960.  Had a great time!!! Lost contact with her until two years ago when we met again at UMW mtg.  We talked & laughed forever - saw her several times since and was looking forward to seeing her at a UMW mtg in Dec.  Faye was a special person - she will be missed.  Love you Faye!  Linda Henry Cusher

Darrell so sad to hear about your parents. You are a lucky man to have them as roll models. Miss all the good times with all the group.

My favorite thing about aunt Faye was listening to her stories about sports. She was so funny. She will be greatly missed. I love you aunt Faye.

She was Chebon Tiger's number 1 fan. Everytime she saw me she would ask how he was doing. She would say I just love to hear him play. Great lady. Prayers.

I was so sorry to hear about faye. My sister's  karen, thomasine, and i use to play basketball for faye. She
 was a very nice lady and  a joy to be around.  She always had a smile on her face.  Heaven is gaining an angel. She will be missed!  Rest in peace faye!!!!

I worked with Faye at Tinker in the 70s. She was a very nice lady I enjoyed getting to know. May she rest in peace.

To a great mother and wife always making sure everybody was doing okay.
We spent a lot of weekends and years following the softball tourneys sharing ups and downs and always plenty of fun. We are going to miss you..and Lenny.
You and Len were the "straw" that stirred the softball groups drink and Sandy and I were so fortunate to be part of that group.
Thank you for always being so nice, you are in our prayers.

May the memories you've created with the people you love resonate forever! 

I'm most sad that I was only able to spend the last year or so getting to know Faye. Truly a special soul that is already missed.

I will always remember Gram & Papa saying " Is that the third baseman with such a potty mouth?" Rose state softball fans all the way that will be missed

Going to "the city" will not be the same. Aunt Faye was so full of joy and she was a fabulous  hostess. Her house was one of my favorite spots to visit as a child and as an adult with my little family. We are going to miss exploring cafes, city streets, and flea markets with her.  We will cherish the memories that were made and we will be glad for her new life in Heaven! With Loving Prayers, Regina, Chad, & Stormi Arnold

Really enjoyed knowing Faye and Len! She always made me laugh at the softball games and I know she was so proud of her grandkids. Prayers for Fayes family from the Tedesco family.

I only met Gram a couple of times, but feel blessed to have met her. I could tell from the first time I met her that she had a good heart and was a very special person. After being around Shelley for quite a few years now I know that Gram passed that good heart on to her. I wish that I could have been around her more before she left this world, but feel blessed at the few times I was. RIP Gram you will missed dearly.

Chilocco alumni loses another great sister, but Faye, we know you are moving on to the eternal place of happiness.

I feel so blessed to have known Len and Faye, sad to hear of Faye's passing.  There were no better people than these two.  I'm sure of there is softball in heaven that Len and Faye will be in attendance.  God bless Darrell and remaining family.

We will miss your smile and your joyful laughter.
                                                        Your friends,
                                                        Toka Lee Horse and family

Not only was Faye a loving Gram to my daughters, Randi and Shelley, but also to my son, Russell and youngest daughter, Kayla. She and Len made my family feel as if they were their own. I remember the good times we had at the ball games and when they would come over to just visit or have a family dinner. She was such a wonderful person and she knew no stranger whether it be in Midwest City or St. Louis, Missouri. We always had to stop and let her talk to someone. That was the beauty in her. Randi and Shelley, I am so proud of you two for everything you have ever done for gram and papa. They could not have done it without you! Not only were they there for you, but you have been there for them. Gram and papa are peacefully resting together again. Faye, I love you and will miss you. Rhonda, Chris, Russell and Kayla

Aunt Faye was such a joy to talk with, wish we could have lived closer to see her and Uncle Leonard more often.  Prayers to my cousin Darrell and girls.

I appreciate the love that Faye and Len had for my sweet nieces.  No matter what they were always there.  And, Randi and Shelley, you turned the favor on them and took care of them in their times of need.  You are such special people and I can't tell you how very PROUD I am of you both.  Faye and Lenn are together now and Heaven has welcomed two more angels!  Love you guys!

You are with Len, love to you and your family.

Although she was my Aunt, I always felt like she was my best friend. I enjoyed the OU basketball games we went to even though she said I embarressed her with my screaming and yelling at the refs. We always had a great time. I have missed my Uncle Len and I am glad they are together again. I will miss you and thank you for all you have done for me in my life. I love you with all my heart and I'll see you, Daddy and Uncle Len again.

Faye, Debbie H., and I had so much fun together.  We would talk for hours about everything, listening to "Good Ole Rock'n and Roll Music".  A truly great friend, she will always be close, she is in my heart forever. Enjoy Heaven, I will see you again.  Love ya Girl,  Ginger & J.D.
