Faithy was one special lady.  More than 53 years ago I married her brother, Randy, and I will always treasure the times with Faith in Eau Claire when Derry was in Vietnam and she came “home” for the year with Kristin, Amy, and Laura, just a baby then.  She helped me with wedding plans for our June wedding when Derry AND Randy returned home on their leaves from the AF.  She took everything in stride during the long year without Derry.
Her smile lit up a room, and she was fun, happy, and full of life.  She loved her family dearly and was an awesome mom, cook, and decorator.  She made houses all over the US and France into homes for their family. There was great joy when David arrived to complete the family.
Times at the lake were extra-fun when the Adamson family arrived.  We remember how Faithy always excused herself to the restroom after a huge dinner was finished.  She would reappear just as most if the after-dinner clean-up was done. Now, when someone needs to use the bathroom after dinner, we call it “A Faithy!”
So many fond memories of Faith will be talked and laughed about and treasured always. 
May you Rest In Peace, Dear Faith, as you catch up with your sweet Derry—he’s been waiting for you.  Love you, Wendy and Randy

I had the privilege of knowing Faith for only three years.  However, I feel like I knew her for 20 years because Faith was so open and sharing about her life.  She shared stories of her military life with a man she adored and missed dearly.  She talked about her children and their lives to the point where I feel I know them as well.  She so loved her grandchildren and couldn’t wait to meet her sweet great granddaughter.  Faith wasn’t one to hold back when asked her advice or opinion, but she always voiced it in an honest and tactful way.  There are so few people who make an impression and impact on your life and Faith was one of those people.  I will miss her smiling face and our rides to P.E.O. and Canasta together. 

We’ve all lost a valued and reliable close friend. Those of us who knew and loved her will cherish her memory for a very long time. Faith was fun to be with and made everyone feel welcomed. She was  a special  friend of mine for 22 years. Kathie  White

So sad to learn that Faith has died. She was Honored Queen of Eau Claire Job’s Daughters and I served on her court as Choir Director . She was always so nice to Everyone! She leaves many good memories for many friends!  

I have known Faith for 18+ years.  We met at the Curves on Powder Springs Road near her home at the time.  She and I, along with our friend, Betty would go out for breakfast, lunch or dinner often.  When that Curves closed, we went to the Curves at Brookstone where we met Kathie and Elaine.  The 4 of us still went out for a meal monthly if we could.  On to Planet Fitness  for a while - still going out or having Patio Parties at Faith's house when they weather cooperated.  I last saw her at my birthday party on November 12th and had a great time but told us of her medical problems.  It all happened so fast I can hardly believe it.  She loved her family and was proud of all of them.  Rest in peace, my friend.  I will miss you terribly.

This picture reminds me of Faith Being recognized as  a P.E.O. "Golden Girl," at Georgia State Convention, Lake Lanier.  It was a wonderful evening and Faith was her usual vivacious self. I'm so glad i had this moment with her, Faith brought out the good in everyone. I will miss Faith and our many conversations. You are Loved.

I'll always remember auntie Faith's joie de vivre, her ready smile and easy laugh. More than that, I know her for being a wonderful wife to a great man and an incredible mom to my four fantastic cousins.

Oh, girls, I am so sorry for your loss, and ours as well. Faith was a dear friend to our ECHS Class of 1956, always full of energy and a friend to everyone. I will share this with all our classmates and on my Eau Claire High School Facebook page. Please know we all greatly share your loss.

I saw her in November & my last memories are her happy, big smile & cutting up. There was never a time that she wasn't bragging about her kids & grandkids.  She was so proud of her family.  I know this is a tremendous loss as she was such an integral part of the family. 
Prayers for all.
RIP Faith ❤️ 

Sorry for the loss of your Mother.  If we can be of help let me know.

I met Faith several years ago when I transferred to Chapter BE P.E.O. in Kennesaw. I enjoyed her warm welcome and exuberant personality, along with the wisdom and leadership she brought to the chapter.  Good times in our book group, luncheons and meetings. Faith will be dearly missed.
