Veronica "Faye" Lee Ward of Talihina, Oklahoma passed away from this life Friday January 20, 2017 at the Manor Nursing Home in Talihina, Oklahoma at the age of 68.

Faye was born February 8, 1948 in Honobia, Oklahoma to Rubin and Melvina (McKinney) Ward
Raised by Rubin and Aline (Potts) Ward

Faye was preceded in death by her parents, step mother Aline and nephew Cecil Ward. 

Faye is survived by her sister Lodi Herndon and brother in law Richard Herndon. Nephew Calvin Ward and special friend Debbie Dalpoas, nieces Doris Winlock and husband Lance and Jessica King and husband Bryan. Three great nephews, six great nieces, six great great nephews and two great great nieces. 

Faye was a very caring Daughter, Sister, Aunt and Sister in Law. She took care of everything that needed care. She was known for her homemade biscuits (they were the size of a cats head)! If you needed a hog or a deer butchered she could do it and made it look easy! She loved blackberry cobbler and wild onions! She always knew the best places to fish and hunt for squirrels. She could do anything from cooking in the kitchen, helping the mechanic to get the race car ready for Saturday night races to clearing land with just a weed wacker, machete and an axe! She was not afraid of hard work. 

Her favorite past time was taking care of all the animals, most especially her dog Cheyenne. No matter how bad she was feeling she always asked about everyone and Cheyenne. She will be missed by all, not just for her hard work and homemade biscuits, but by all the love and care she gave to us each and every day.

Graveside services will be held at the GoodSprings Methodist Cemetery Friday January 27, 2017 at 2:00 pm followed by fellowship at the Whitesboro school cafeteria. Officiating by Margie Jones.
