Faye was an extremely bright young woman with an aptitude for math. Faye graduated Jefferson High School in 1952, attended school in Arlington, TX, and then worked many years as an accountant for General Motors Company in Dallas. She married Bobby Lee Renfro, April 23, 1955. He was the love of her life until he was called home in 2012. They were reunited upon her death on the date of their anniversary -- they would have been married 65 years.

After working for GM, she then opened her own real estate company MFR Real Estate which she operated for many years before retiring in 2007. Not one to be idle, she moved with her family back to her family home in Smithland, TX, where she was born. She enjoyed walking the pastures and following her big heart, she rescued all manner of wildlife and homeless cats in the area. She especially loved spending time with siblings, nieces and nephews, sharing her special laughter and positive outlook on life. Faye was an avid storyteller and would regale you with fascinating stories and history from years ago.
