Support Fay's Legacy and Jack's Future

Help Honor Fay & Support Her Son Jack

Update: It is with great sadness that we share Fay passed away peacefully. We ask that you keep Jack and their family in your prayers. Fay faced her battle with courage and made a lasting impact on everyone who knew her. She will be profoundly missed.

Fay Cokeley is a devoted single mom to her pride and joy, Jack, who is entering his second year at Penn State. Since her breast cancer diagnosis on December 23, 2015, Fay has fought courageously through countless treatments and challenges. Despite her strength and determination, her health has recently declined, and she is now under hospice care.

Fay is a loving mother, caring friend, cherished sister, and beloved daughter. Those who know her have witnessed the warmth, humor, and love she shares so freely with those around her.

Due to her illness, Fay had to step away from her successful career in real estate. While she focuses on comfort and time with loved ones, we hope to ease some of the financial burdens during this difficult time.

One of our goals is to raise enough to purchase a tribute in Fay’s honor at the Botanical Gardens. The Botanical Gardens is one of Fay's most favorite places to be in all of Ithaca. She would go almost daily for walks- especially after days she had doctor visits or treatments. She found joy in noticing the flowers around her and photographing the ones that caught her eye.

Our second goal is to raise funds that will go directly to Jack, ensuring he can continue his education without the added worry of financial strain.

If you’re able, please consider donating- no amount is too small. Every contribution is a tribute to Fay’s life and a helping hand to Jack as he navigates the future.

Thank you for your love, generosity, and support during this time.
