Faye Sides Dies after Contracting an E. coli Infection
Faye Sides of Salisbury, North Carolina, died in a Rowan County hospital Thursday of multiple organ failure after contracting an E. coli infection. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. According to a story at IndependentTribune.com:
Great-niece Susan Ferrare said Sides loved children and she helped raise her nieces and nephews. “I never needed a babysitter,” Ferrare said. . . . Sides had five nieces and nephews, 14 great-nieces and nephews and 13 great-great nieces and nephews.
Sides loved to be outdoors, Ferrare said. “She always had a garden - where she grew corn, potatoes, cucumbers, everything,” Ferrare said.
Sides attended Mount Zion United Church of Christ, where she was a faithful member. . . . Kathy Ayash, another great-niece, said she always had Juicy Fruit chewing gum or candy for the children at church. Whenever there was a death in the church, Sides and a group of women would make meals for the family, Shepherd said. “They were always wonderful suppers,” Barbara Shepherd [a fellow church member] said.
