Fay had three children who predeceased her: James, Stephen, and Kevin, as well as her sisters, Marjory Ensign and Barbara Priestley.
Fay lovingly fostered hundreds of children Through the Department of Social Services. She was always willing to take sibling groups because she strongly believed in supporting sibling relationships. She was very active in the Foster Parent Association setting up a robust support system for foster parents with support groups, training, and even seasonal clothing when all the stores were stocked for the next season.
She will be sorely missed by her family and friends.
