Fay was born July 31, 1936 in New Albany, MS to the late Johnnie and Myrtle Morris. She was a retired bookkeeper and member of the First United Methodist Church in Batesville, MS. Fay and husband loved traveling all over the country visiting new places and spending time with their many friends. During the summer months, she took great pride working in the vegetable garden and canning what they had grown. Playing solitaire has always been a favorite card game of Fay’s, but what Fay loved most was spending time with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
