2 Comments on “Nellie "Faye" Mann”
Paul and family I was so shocked to hear about Ms. Faye. She was a wonderful person and had a heart as big as Texas. She was always cooking food and sending over to her neighbors. She had a very cheerful bubbly personality. I know everyone is heartbroken. I will never forget her. Thinking about you all at this sad time. Sending heartfelt sympathies. Sincerely Susie
My sincere condolences to the family. I worked with Faye in the early 80s when I was promoting bridal fashions for Modern Bride magazine. She was so kind and generous, plus extremely hard working. I was honored to know her and work with her. She was a true professional and will be missed by anyone who ever knew her. May she rest in peace.
With heartfelt sympathy,
