Ms. Alice Faye Martin

In Loving Memory of Alice Faye Martin (Fosheé) was born on July 20, 1949 to Dewey Sr. and Helen Fosheé in Detroit, Michigan. Alice was the second oldest of four children. Her parents Dewey Sr., Helen Fosheé, Sandra M. Moore and Dewey Fosheé Jr. all preceded her in death. Alice started her early education in Catholic School but later finished and graduated from the public school system. She also accepted Christ at an early age. Alice was joined holy matrimony to Prince G. McDuell Sr. in 1967, and to this union one son was born Prince G. McDuell Jr. Alice preferred to be called Faye. In 1976, Alice was employed by Ford Motor Company at the Van Dyke Plant. She later transferred to the Sterling Heights Plant where she worked as a line inspector. Also, she was a part of the UAW teamsters. Alice retired from Ford Motor Company after 35 years in 2006. Alice had many gifts and talents. She could sing, draw, paint because she loved art. But, her most memorable gift was “hospitality”! She was a very good cook, that would lead her to host most of the family holiday dinners. We played games and even had karaoke. Along with this gift, she would help anyone who needed a helping hand. Be it family or friend, all because of her love for people. But of course her greatest love of all was for her son Prince Jr. She simply adored him. Alice would later marry Samuel Martin. No children were born to this union. However she did have stepchildren, Tracey (Malachi), Maurice and Tina. Whom Alice was very fond of them. Alice loved history. Being very inquisitive she researched natural history as well as biblical history. This lead Alice having a deeper walk with Jesus and gave her a firmer foundation in her Christian and biblical studies. So much so, Alice had a very extensive Christian Library. She also adored all her pets throughout the years. Birds, cats, rabbits, fish and dogs. However, her dogs were her most cherished pets, Todd, Niegel and Chesare-Ray. Alice also enjoyed traveling and going out to eat. 2 Timothy 4:6-7 NLT “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, and I have remained faithful.” Love, Faye 2 Corinthians 5:8 NLT “Yes, we are fully confident, and we would rather be away from these earthly bodies, for then we will be at home with the Lord.” Isaiah 46:4 NLT “I will be your God throughout your lifetime until your hair is white with age.
