“This is the beginning of a new day. God has given me this day to use as I will. I can waste it or use it for good. What I do today is important, because I’m exchanging a day of my life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever, leaving something I have traded for it. I want it to be gain, not loss; good, not evil; success, not failure; in order that I shall not regret the price I paid for it. Just one life ‘twill soon be past, only what’s done for Christ will last.”
The family would like to extend special thanks to Doris Lane and all Faye’s friends at Colonial Lodge.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorials be made to The Cowboy Church in the Camp, P. O. Box 6751, Paris, TX 75461.
