Fay then commissioned into the Air Force Nursing Corps as a second lieutenant. Fay and Leon met while in the Air Force when they were both stationed in Newfoundland, Canada. When they both went on to new duty stations, they maintained a long distance relationship until Leon decided he couldn’t stand to be without her and asked her to marry him. They were married on August 30, 1958. Her nursing career spanned 35 years, most of that time working with newborn babies. Fay loved her family with her whole heart and was a faithful servant of God.
