Summary

Faye originally wrote her memoirs as a legacy to her descendants. Friends who heard the story, and her family who lived it, have encouraged Faye to publish the narrative as an inspiration to a larger audience.

She grew up in a small Alabama farm town. At age 19, Faye married Doug, her high school sweetheart. Knowing each other since age four, both shared the same values and pursued similar goals. With persistence and faith, they remained focused on their common aspirations undeterred by setbacks. Faye has uniquely interwoven historical milestones to construct the timeline of her story.

Listeners will be encouraged as Faye shares how her tears became laughter, stumbling blocks became stepping stones, and disappointments became blessings when circumstances and just folks were providentially placed throughout her life’s journey. And what a journey she and Doug have experienced! Come along for the inspirational ride On the Shoulders of Just Folks, Faye’s surrogate giants.
