    Fay & Leo were a real team. Fay was made up of counselor, guidance director and stability that showed. Although she did not drive a cat or earthmover she was just as much a driving force & earth mover as if she did. Not only with finances & family meals but family business dealings were with determination & integrity. The Germans have a saying that fits the occasion. “auf Wiedersehen” not good bye but: Until we meet again!
    Go rest high my FRIEND.
    Curtis & Dolores Ingram.

    Lester, your Mother was a wonderful woman. Prayers to you and your Family. I remember when I would have a sleepover at your house and she would make us a huge breakfast! She was a great cook. R.I.P Faye.
