Hale, Martha Faye (Marcum)

Martha Faye (Marcum) Hale passed away Friday, June 20, 2003 at the 
age of 78. Faye was born on January 17, 1925 in Blanchard, the 
youngest of ten children of Orpha (Ely) and William Henry Marcum. 
Faye worked as a homemaker and briefly for Western Electric, T.G.&Y. 
and Acme Potato Chip Companies. She was a very capable gardener, cook 
and seamstress and took pride in her ability to create unique and 
colorful items by hand. After living many years in Oklahoma City, she 
found the small town atmosphere she always liked as a resident of 
Bethany, where she most recently resided in the Southern Plaza and 
Forest Glade Retirement communities. She found a church home there in 
the Evangelistic Center and was greatly comforted by Brother Monroe 
Stevens, who will officiate at her memorial service. Faye was 
preceded in death by two husbands, James R. Best and Harvey Hale. She 
is survived by her sister Hazel Moss of Zavalla, TX, and by her 
daughters, Saundra J. Stewart and husband Ronald, of Oklahoma City, 
and Linda D. Scott and husband David, of Amarillo, TX; and by 
grandchildren Bryan Capps, Amarillo; Michelle Valdez and husband 
Eric, Amarillo; Dominique Shadid and husband Chris, Oklahoma City; 
Nicole Stewart, Fort Worth; and numerous nieces and nephews. A 
memorial service will be held at 2 p.m. Tuesday, June 24, at the 
Mercer-Adams Chapel, 3925 N. Asbury, Bethany. Donations in Faye's 
memory may be made to Olivia's Angels, BSA Hospice, P.O. Box 950, 
Amarillo, TX 79105-9975.
