Faye (Smith) Thomas Hall

Faye Smith Thomas Hall, age 88, passed away Thursday, February 12, 2026 at the FirstHealth Hospice House, with her family by her side.

She was born in Lee County on January 14, 1938 to the late Wilbur Dowdell Smith and Octavia Welch Smith.  In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her son Tony Blue Thomas; daughter Kim Thomas Rives; first husband Waylon Thomas and second husband Henry Hall.

She was an active and lifelong member of Cumnock Union Church and served as Treasurer for over 20 years.  She worked as the Program Director for the Joint Orange Chatham Community Action (JOCCA), retiring in her 80’s.

Faye was a devoted wife, mother, sister, grandmother and friend.  She loved her family, friends and church more than anything else. She was a grandmother to many and a friend to all!  In her spare time, she loved to cook, read and play solitaire. 

Her life was a beacon for all of us.

The family would like to give a heartfelt thank you to Dr. Gerard O'Donnell and his team for the decades of care they provided.  The love and support they gave, not only to grandma, but the entire family throughout the years will never be forgotten.
