Faye was born December 3, 1946, to Walter T. and Bessie Lantrip Conn in Winston County, Mississippi. After moving to Lake, Mississippi, she became a member of Sandridge Baptist Church; she was a member of Gum Branch Baptist Church when she lived in Louisville. Faye enjoyed making flower arrangements, cooking, and going to yard sales. She enjoyed spoiling her beloved dogs—JoJo and Baby who dearly loved her in return.

She also leaves behind to mourn her passing her daughter-in-law Sonja Yarbrough of Louisville and her brother Sidney Callahan of French Camp, Mississippi.
