Faye Hammond Humphrey, 84, of Eatonton, Georgia passed away March 19, 2025. She was born Dec. 6, 1940, in Thomson, Georgia, to the late R.L Hammond and Mary Lucille Hammond the youngest of three children. Faye graduated from Thomson High School.

Faye met her one and only love Bobby R. Humphrey in the small town of Thomson where they were married in July of 1960. Their life revolved around outdoor activities and raising their only daughter, Shawn. They spent most of their life living near family in Warner Robins, Georgia. In 1986, they moved to Milledgeville, Georgia to be near their daughter Shawn and her husband Bert Davis. After the passing of her husband, Faye moved to Putnam County to live next door to Shawn and Bert.

Faye retired from the Georgia Bureau of Investigation Central Regional Crime lab in July 2004. She spent many years working at a job she enjoyed and spending each day working side by side with her daughter Shawn. She enjoyed many years of long friendships with her co-workers.

Faye spent the last 16 years caring for and enjoying the company of her furry companion, Penni. Penni gave everything in life to bring her joy and laughter. No one gives more love than a dog. They were inseparable to the end.

Faye is survived by her daughter, Shawn H. Davis and her son-in-law Bert Davis and several nieces and nephews.

A private graveside service was held at Baldwin Memorial Gardens, Friday March 21, so that she can again rest peacefully beside her Bobby.
