Faye was born in Tuscaloosa on January 1, 1945, the first newborn in Tuscaloosa that year. She was a graduate of Tuscaloosa County High School in 1963. She was married to Freeman Patrick for 58 years and was a loving mother of 3 children. Growing up on a farm as 1 of 7 kids, she was an incredibly hard worker and very crafty. Faye enjoyed sewing and could always repair any tattered clothing. Her quilts were so colorful. Faye loved to be outside and work in her garden. No one ever went hungry because of her love of cooking. Her knowledge of plants and flowers was incredible. Faye also enjoyed spending time with her grandkids who called her “Nanny”. She always volunteered to keep them and spoiled them. You’ll always be in our hearts and minds, Nanny! Until we see you again in Heaven!
Pallbearers include Scott Wilson, Mike Burkes, Grant Patrick, Ben Patrick, Colton Wilson and Luke Wilson.
In Lieu of flowers send money to the Bethel Cemetery Fund at 6121 Rice Mine Road NE Tuscaloosa AL, 35406.
