She was employed as an office manager at Alker Tire & Supply, Dr. Gasper Barcinas’ office, and Bridgeport Tire & Supply and Meadowbrook Company in 1985. That same year, she and her husband Dean purchased TSS Photography. Faye worked at her regular job, as well as part time assistant to the family business for fourteen years. In 2000, she retired from Meadowbrook Co. and continued to work part time with her husband. In 2005, she began working full time as an office manager at TSS Photography, where her professionalism and pleasant personality were welcomed by customers and employees alike. The business was sold in 2009, when Faye and Dean began retirement which included traveling and enjoying their free time.
