Fain and Dee where so much fun to be around! One of my favorite memories was Fain always buying beautiful jewerly for Dee. There was a few weeks that every time we saw her at church she had a new piece of jewerly. My husband always commented her on her beautiful jewerly. So one Sunday she had on a new bracelet. My husband said,"Dee, you must have been a really good girl to get a gift like that." Dee came back to Jim saying, "Honey, good girls don't get gift like this!" She always smiled and was a blessing to call her a friend. God bless Dee and Fain that are happy together once again. Prayers for the family as they have lost an angel!
