Faye and Ray were married October 25, 1939 in Vernon, Texas. She lived in Arkansas and Oklahoma while Ray was in the military.

She accepted Christ into her life at Calvary Baptist Church in Rotan where she was baptized. She worshipped at the Oyster Creek United Methodist Church with family and friends.
Faye was a homemaker who loved to cook for her family and friends. She enjoyed fishing in coastal waters, was an avid gardener, and always had an abundant vegetable garden that she generously shared with neighbors and friends. She was able to prepare a feast from practically anything, and her table always had room for one more. She enjoyed taking long walks in her neighborhood and visiting all her neighbors.
Honorary Pallbearers are her grandsons Jason and Lance Rasmussen; Joel Brandon, Charles "Chaz", James, and David Cobb; and Donald "Buddy" Robison.
