Sara Faye was a strong, straightforward, loving mama, Nana, aunt, sister, and friend. She loved to cook enormous, delicious, home-cooked meals for her loved ones. Most Sundays after church you would find family and friends gathered around her kitchen table enjoying one of her flavorsome meals. She loved the holidays when her family would come together, and she was able to prepare a huge supper for them. She would make small pecan pies, and tarts, peach cobbler, a variety of cookies and pies, along with an endless amount of food. She took pride in her cooking and it was a way for her to bring together her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. She loved music and often you could find her in her kitchen cooking while jamming out to some Cajun or country music. She enjoyed the simple things in life and put her family before herself. She was a hardworking woman her entire life. She did without to provide her children with the things they needed while growing up. She loved crossword puzzles, enjoyed relaxing by sitting outside or watching some of her favorite shows on television such as, “Swamp People,” the cooking channel, anything on the SyFy channel or scary movies, but only during the day. She enjoyed gardening and was able to grow just about anything, especially ivies. She loved her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren with all her heart and was so proud of each of them. Sara Faye’s legacy will live on through the cherished memories her family and friends hold dear to their hearts.
