Faye was born Sept. 12, 1931.

She was the last child of Howard J. Cable and Carrie Lobdell Cable Secrest.

Faye graduated from Deposit Central School in June 1949.

She married her high school sweetheart, Kenneth McElroy, Sept. 12, 1949. Kenneth also predeceased Faye in 2008.

Faye spent many happy years as a homemaker, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She had five children, Lynda (1951), Terry (1957), Shelley (1960), Brenda (1961) and Tanya (1968). Faye also had 17 grandchildren, 25 great-grandchildren and 10 great-great-grandchildren.

Her parents predeceased her, along with her brothers, Ted, Doug and Larry; as well as her sister, Doris.
