![]() Faye and Earl expanded their family along the way. Throughout their lives, Earl was stationed in several Manitoba towns namely Winnipeg, Emerson, Brandon and Deloraine (of which they made life-lasting friendships over their years). This was where she met a young Constable Earl Morrow, the man who would become her husband of 65 years. When Faye was left on her own with two small children to raise, she moved to Fort Smith, NWT and found work cooking. This motto influenced her the most throughout her life. Faye learned through the depression years that it was important to SAVE EVERYTHING. Faye’s love of cooking, no doubt, was influenced by her mother, who in the early days, ran the Lewis Stopping House, cooking for people who were settling in the west and needed a good meal along their travels. A large garden was planted in the summer and vegetables gathered and cooked for the big family, who would be hungry after a hard day’s work.
