Faye Marie Fallon, 71, of Kirby Road passed away Monday, January 1, 2018 at Saratoga Hospital following a courageous battle with COPD.

Born on September 14, 1946 in Duluth, MN, she was the daughter of Lloyd C. and Alice M. (Collins) Baldwin.

Faye grew up in Baudette, MN and was a 1964 graduate of Baudette High School. Although her heart would always be in Baudette, she called Saratoga her home. Faye spent over 40 years in the medical field, working for Kercull, Gallagher & Fein MD in her early years and over 20 years for James Miller, MD, retiring in 2016.

Faye was a communicant of St. Clements Church, a life member of the VFW, was a longtime “Friend of Bill W” and an avid lifelong Minnesota Vikings Fan. She was always there with that maternal touch, whether it be a hand to hold, a guiding voice or a sheet cake for an event, she was a friend to many and will be sorely missed.

Survivors include two daughters Traci Ellis (Aston) of Saratoga Springs and Kristine Zingaro (Joseph) of Liverpool, NY; grandchildren Jelani and Jynessa Ellis, Ian and Sydney Zingaro, Brittney and Taylor Fallon-McMahon as well as best friend in life, Leslie Honebrink of Benson, MN.

Besides her parents, she is pre-deceased by her former husband, close friend and father of their children Michael J. Fallon; a son Michael Fallon, sister-in-law Bonnie Basmajian, niece Dina Basmajian, nephew Dennis Basmajian, and grandniece Brooke Shattuck.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at 9:30 am on Friday, January 5, 2018 at St. Clements Roman Catholic Church, 231 Lake Ave, Saratoga Springs.  A celebration of life will follow at the VFW, 190 Excelsior Ave, Saratoga Springs, NY 12866.

Family and friends may call from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm on Thursday, January 4, 2018 at Compassionate Funeral Care, 402 Maple Avenue (Rte 9 and/or Marion Ave.), Saratoga Springs.

Interment will be at Greenridge Cemetery in the spring.
