Later years, Fay became an Activities Director for Cartwheel Lodge. She loved caring for the residents. Also, she was the Food Service Supervisor for E.B. Davis Memorial Hospital (now Seton). She is fondly remembered for her delicious hot rolls and beautifully decorated cakes. She became a Wilton’s Cake Decorating Instructor and was very proud of her students.

Also, she was dedicated to sharing God’s word at chapel services in nursing homes. Throughout her life, she loved singing her favorite hymns.
