Charlie Faye was born on October 4, 1929 in Kleberg, Texas to Gladys and Charles Broyles. She loved music and dancing. In the late1950's she aspired to teach ballroom dance and honed her craft at the Arthur Murray Studio in Dallas. She also loved the outdoors and explored the woods and creek with her girls. Charlie was a talented artist, painting both portraits and landscapes and drawing in pen and ink. Her drawings of old Lancaster, Texas homes were featured in a calendar. She was an active member of both the Lancaster and Waxahachie art clubs, and she displayed her works in various art shows.
Charlie Faye loved her family and friends and enjoyed taking family vacations to the Smokey Mountains and the coast. She and Jerry entertained the grandchildren with camping trips, Halloween dress up and playtime in Grandpa's red convertible.
Charlie was fond of all God's creatures. She and Jerry fed and rescued many dogs and cats over the years. Her grandsons fondly remember her beautiful backyard at their Lancaster home and how she shared cuttings from her plantings. They refer to her as having a green thumb.
