Faye Nevills (née Bryan)

February 17, 1945 - April 17, 2025

It is with heavy hearts and deep love that we announce the passing of Faye Nevills, who left us on April 17, 2025, at the age of 80.

Faye was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and friend, whose warmth and joy touched everyone who had the privilege of knowing her. Born in 1945, Faye lived a life full of laughter, kindness, and grace. She was the devoted wife of 60 years to her husband, Charles, and a proud mother to two sons—Michael, who preceded her in passing, and Stephen and his partner Lloyd, who continue to carry her spirit forward. She was a loving grandmother to Matthew and a tireless supporter of her family and community.

She spent most of her career with Whitby Hydro, where she was a dedicated and hardworking employee and a cherished colleague. Faye also volunteered her time at the Whitby hospital gift shop, bringing comfort and connection to others through her generous heart.

Faye loved the simple joys of life: blooming flowers, music, meaningful conversations, and cherished moments with family and friends. Her optimism and kindness defined her, and her laughter brought light to every room.

Though our hearts ache in her absence, we take comfort in knowing her life was lived with purpose, joy, and deep love. She was loved beyond words and will be missed beyond measure.

Fly Again
Her trembling hands held the church pew that day,
struggling to stand when they asked her to pray.
With wisdom and strength her words were spoken.
But her body grew weary for her wings were broken.

But she will fly once again.
She will soar with her wings unfolded.
Hear the angels applaud as she rides on the wind
to the arms of God. And she will fly,

She will fly again.

And on that day when she left for the sky
I saw her smile as she told me goodbye.
No more would she weep for missed tomorrows.
No more would she suffer in this land of sorrows.

But she will fly once again.
She will soar with her wings unfolded.
Hear the angels applaud as she rides on the wind
to the arms of God. And she will fly.
She will fly...
