Mrs. Porche was employed by Knit and Stitch in Cocoa Village and was a member of Merritt Island Presbyterian Church in Merritt Island, FL. Her favorite pastime was just being with Kathy, her spouse. She enjoyed traveling, bird-watching, fishing, gardening and could always be found with a set of knitting needles in her hands – she kept several projects going at all times - for new babies, others in need, family members, friends – and people she didn’t even know. She was an organ donor and her wishes were carried through. People knew and loved Faye for her kind and loving spirit.

In lieu of flowers the family asks that donations be made to Merritt Island Presbyterian Church. Services are provided by Wiley-Baxley Funeral Home, Merritt Island, FL.
