She was born on November 5, 1946 in Saco, the daughter of Bernard A. and Lucille L. (Woodward) Backman.

Faye loved the outdoors, and feeding the birds.

She also loved reading books, especially historical romances, and being with her grandkids. Faye also had a special spot in her heart for her dogs: Sam, Shadow and Bella. They brought great joy to Faye and Don.

Faye was predeceased by her parents, Bernard and Lucille Backman; her son, Donald H. Smith Jr.; her sisters, Bernardette Beal and Maryann Merchant; and her brother, Gordon Backman.

She is survived by her husband of 50 years, Donald H. Smith Sr.; son, Michael Smith and wife Beth; grandsons, Steven and Matthew Smith; daughter-in-law, Janet Smith; and granddaughter, Kirsten Smith, all of Wiscasset; as well as many nieces and nephews.
