Faye Rushing

November 2, 1944 — January 16, 2024

Jackson, TN

Faye Rushing entered her heavenly home on January 16, 2024, at Jackson-Madison County General Hospital at the age 79.

She was born on November 2, 1944, the daughter of the late Roy E. and Helen Brown Collins.  She was married to Virgil Leon Rushing who preceded her in death in 2012.  Faye was known by many in the community as a hairdresser with the Magic Mirror where she met two of her life-long friends that became family, Linda and Karon.  Later in life is where the adventures of the Two Silly Sisters began.  Many tall tales and stories can be told from there, but some can't.  The bond and adventures she shared with her sister brought fun and laughter that was unimaginable. Faye loved and lived life to the fullest, where every day was a new adventure.  She loved her family.  She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and friend.  Her life was filled with lots of laughter, travels and amazing stories.

She is survived by her daughter, Alison Griffin of Jackson, TN, her sister, Sarah Dahlstrom and husband Richard "Dick" of Jackson, TN and a brother, Chris Collins and wife Patricia of Jackson, TN along with six grandchildren, Emily McConnell (Justin), Abby Boone, Brent Rushing (Kennedi), Lauren Rhodes (Scotty), Amber Ward (Thomas) and Scarlet Smith (Jeff).

Along with her parents and husband, she was preceded in death by her son, Greg Rushing, her brother, Hilliard Collins and her granddaughter, Anna Marie Boone.
