<div>Fawn was a kind and generous woman, willing to lend a helping hand, a kind word, and a fervent prayer to any who was in need. As a woman of faith and service to her community, she served in the capacities of deaconess for the Gay Head Baptist Church and as a Councilwoman for the Wampanoag Tribe of Gay Head (Aquinnah). She was also known as a skilled scallop shucker and artisan, crafting necklaces out of the very shells she shucked, as well as ribbon shirts. Fawn always loved sharing and discussing scripture, whether it was with family, friends, or strangers.
