OBITUARY: Faye Taylor Foster – Williamson Source

The beautiful Faye Taylor Foster never met a stranger. She was a beloved wife, mother, daughter and grandmother. She is preceded in death by her family who loved her dearly.

Husband Jim Foster, daughter Lisa Gray (husband Stu)…her grandson and “Munchkin” Dean Gray…son Bob Taylor…her sisters Darlene Atwell (husband Charlie) and Regina Larkin, brother Rick Larkin (wife Carol)…stepdaughters Dana Foster, Jamie Brush (husband Allen), Megan Foster and her granddaughters Elizabeth, MacKenzie, Everly, Hannah, Matthew, Tyler, Breanna, Andrew and bonus daughter Judi Watkins. She was a “second mother” to MANY and a “sister” to MANY others.

She will succeed her mother Margaret Larkin, who died before her in February 2020, and her second mother Una Jordan in 2023.

Faye loved her husband Jim passionately and was thankful that he was a man who loved the Lord. She spoke to her daughter Lisa every day and enjoyed spending as much time with her as possible, whether they were fixing up houses, shopping at thrift stores, or sitting on the porch. She loved giving and receiving hugs, especially from her son-in-law Stu and grandson Dean, whom she adored. She enjoyed spending time with family and friends, sharing meals and memories.

She had a servant’s heart. Over the last 10 years, she and her husband were blessed to care for her mother Margeret, her sister Regina, her brother Rick, and many others. She was baking pound cakes for her family who were visiting on the Fourth of July and working on her sister’s hair when the Lord took her.

She enjoyed reading good books, listening to good music, and finding treasures at thrift stores and estate sales. Before Covid, she was fortunate enough to travel the world with her love Jim and see many amazing places.

She would immediately ask everyone she met, “Where do you go to church?” and if there was no church, she would immediately invite them to Gateway Church because she loved her church community so much! She would also invite people to her home for dinner, a swim, or just to enjoy the view of the hill that the Lord had blessed her and Jim with.

One of Faye’s life philosophies was “It doesn’t cost anything to ask!” which earned her, her family and friends many discounts in shops, cheaper bills and free treats in restaurants! Her laugh was infectious and her smile could be felt across the room. When people met her, they never forgot the experience!

Come celebrate Faye’s blessed life. Visitation hours will be Thursday, July 11th from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. and Friday, July 12th from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at Gateway Franklin Church.

Her celebration of life service will be on Friday, July 12th at 1:00 p.m. also at Gateway Franklin Church, 1288 Lewisburg Pike, Franklin TN 37064.
