Funeral Director

Faye was preceded in death by her husband in 2014; one daughter, Judith Charron in 2015; and by siblings Carl Vincent, Clyde, Harry, Loren and Cecil. She was the last living member of her family.

She enjoyed quilting, reading, and crossword puzzles. She very much enjoyed her employment of 30 years in the OB department of Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital, from which she retired in 1988. After hospital retirement she worked in home health care. Most of all she loved her family and all the get-togethers. She was a longtime member of Atlanta Christian Church.

Memorials may be made to the Atlanta Rescue Squad, Atlanta Christian Church or the donor’s choice.

Final arrangements are entrusted with Quiram-Peasley Funeral Home of Atlanta.
