Memories of Mattye Faye
from a friend, Wanda Sinclair McCorkle
When I think of "Faye," as her mom called her, my heart sings!
She was the most delightful person to know and have as a
friend. She had a quick wit about her and she kept us laughing
with her "Shakespeare-speak." "Forthwith" was a favorite;
"perchance" was also. She called me St. Clair (Saint for short).
Even her letters written after she was married were addressed to
"Saint."
I have a picture of her son when he was small and I have
thought of him a lot--wondering where he might be. I would
love to tell him how special she was. She was amazing. She's
been gone a long time now, but she was unique and I've never
met anyone else like her. I will always love her.
