Rob, Dot and family, So sorry to hear of Fayne’s passing. He was such a gentle man and one of the few remaining patriarchs of the east side Cole Avenue neighborhood families. Will miss seeing him riding his bicycle. My thoughts are with you at this difficult time.

Seney family,

I am so sorry for the loss of Mr Seney. He was a very sweet man, always stopped to say hi when he went for his daily walks. He always made me smile when he rode his bike past my house. Rest easy Mr Seney.

Dorothy, Allen and Rob, Sorry to hear about Fayne’s passing. He was a wonderful man who did a lot for youth sports in Williamstown and he was one of the best conditioned athletes I ever known. We will miss him riding his bike and swimming. Our prayers are with you all.

I’m so sorry to hear of Fayne’s passing. I worked for him at GE right after I joined the Financial Management Program in 1969. Always a true gentleman and I loved to talk sports with him.
