I became acquainted with Faye and members of her family in 1967 when a second lieutenant and vacationing at Myrtle Beach prior to leaving for Thailand on a Special Forces assignment during the Vietnam War. In 1969 I was badly wounded in Vietnam. A month later I was transferred to a hospital in Maryland. While recovering from my wounds, I would often be sent home for a few days at a time awaiting recovery enough to undergo additional surgery. Having no home as such, Faye, her mother Marie Honeycutt and daughter Jeanne and her extended family in Kingsport took me in and literally loved me back to health. It touched me deeply. What I would have done without them all I do not know. It was an act of God and Faye was his faithful servant.

Dear family, we are so sorry for your loss, though we never met you, we felt a kinship through our love for Faye. We loved Faye and will miss her yearly Christmas cards that we exchanged down through the years. She dated our dad years ago and always reminded me of my mother.
