Faye Spann

Mrs. Faye Spann, age 88, of Charlotte, Tennessee, passed away peacefully on Monday, June 8, 2026.

Born on September 9, 1937, Faye lived a life centered around faith, family, and enjoying the simple blessings that each day brought. She was a devoted Lutheran and an active member of her church's women's group, where she found great joy in fellowship, service, and cultivating meaningful friendships over the years.

Faye had a deep appreciation for the outdoors and loved spending time tending to her flowers and gardens. Whether working in the yard, taking leisurely walks, or enjoying the beauty of God's creation, she found happiness in nature. She also enjoyed traveling, especially trips to the beach and the mountains, where she created many cherished memories with family and friends.

An avid football fan, Faye rarely missed the opportunity to watch a game and cheer on her favorite teams. She enjoyed listening to country music, spending time with her beloved dogs, and sharing stories and laughter with those she loved. Her warm personality, gentle spirit, and caring heart made her a blessing to all who knew her.

Above all, Faye treasured her family. She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend whose life was marked by kindness, faith, and devotion to those around her. Her legacy of love, compassion, and unwavering faith will continue to live on in the hearts of all who were fortunate enough to know her.
