    Rick and family-
    So sorry to hear of Faye’s passing. What a great woman she was. I have many fond memories, she gave me a teapot from her collection for my 3rd birthday which I still have. There was always a joke between Faye and my Mother. Mom would not let us eat chocolate ice cream because it left brown stains – only vanilla for the Crosby kids. Mom would say”you can have chocolate Ice cream at my funeral. When I called Faye to let her know Mom had passed she said she was sorry then said “shall I bring some Chocolate Ice Cream! She could always make me smile. Sending you sympathy from the Crosby’s and savoring my memories of Faye.
