Sonny and Faye literally traveled the world together and shared many adventures. After retirement, Sonny and her enjoyed summers at the cottage with family, friends and her many doggies through the years. Cottage times were filled with wonderful food. Faye was a great cook, she loved fishing, going on the boat and nights around the campfire. Those who knew Faye will remember her beautiful personality, she was a good listener and always gave honest advice. She had the best laugh and a smile that would light up a room.
