Faye Sizemore
Faye and GrantFaye was born in Kentucky in 1942 and makes her home in the beautiful foothills of South Carolina with Grant, the love of her life, as well as three dogs, two cats, two parakeets and four nanny goats.
Grant is a Vietnam Veteran having served with the US Marines in 1968-69 and is, of course, Faye’s muse. Faye is deeply interested in Veterans’ Affairs and Veterans’ Causes. She is very proud of Grant and her poetry is an off-shoot of that pride.
