Alice Faye “Faye” Holt, 78 of Scottsboro, arose to be with her lord and savior, Jesus Christ, on Tuesday, January 11, 2022. Funeral services were held on Saturday, January 15, 2022 at Scottsboro Funeral Home with Debbie Johnson officiating. Burial followed at Pinehaven Memorial Gardens.
Faye had a zest for life and did not want to miss a minute. She learned of Jesus early in life and was faithful to share her love to others. Faye loved music, dancing, fishing, cooking, collecting antiquest and anything that caught her eye as unusual. She had a way of causing others to feel special after meeting with them and praying if the occasion arose. Faye was a very devoted wife and mother and loved all of her relatives. She taught all her children how to cook, perform all household duties, love, forgiveness, manners and respect to others, and most importantly, her love for Jesus Christ, who they all know today.
