A proud member of the Confederated Tribes of the Colville, Faith worked for several years in various tribal government departments including Tribal Courts and Human Resources, as well as others.

Faith's self-proclaimed status as founder and CEO of "The Man-Haters Club" brought her many hours of lively conversations with others. She enjoyed Rodeo, going to casino, doing crafts, beading, "slurcones" and loving her dogs.

A "Natural Nurturer" Faith's very personality welcomed others who needed a helping/guiding hand to both family and friend. Her greatest love though was spending time with her children and grandchildren, whether making them cotton candy or trips to "Disneyland", Faith LOVED her family!
