I am the youngest daughter of Ira Jack Brown who was Faye’s uncle. Her mother and my father were brother and sister. Although I didn’t know Faye personally, I heard my father speak highly of her and know he was very fond of her. I am proud to be a member of such a great family with it’s wonderful heritage. Sending love to all the family.
