It is my sad duty to report that Fay Day of Rachel passed away on Sunday early morning in her home in Rachel. Ms Fay, as she was known, was the wife of DC Day, founder of Rachel, who passed away in 1997. Many of you will remember Fay as the friendly old lady running the Quik Pik market and gas station in Rachel before it closed down. Everyone in Rachel loved her, and we will all miss her dearly. Her son David cared for her and she passed away peacefully during the night. There will be a service on Saturday at 2pm in the quonset hut in D C Day park in Rachel. The attached photo shows Fay (right) with Edith Grover during Rachel Day 2003.
