On Sunday, April 12, 2009, James Stephenson 'Steve' Faw died at his home in Polson. He was born in Newburgh, New York on December 14, 1944 to James Enoch and Martha Cornelia Sims Faw. He grew up on Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey with twin brother John Marshall, sister Cornelia and brother Gerald. He attended the University of Maryland where he met and married Eileen Cumberland in 1965. Steve's life was blessed with two daughters whom he dearly loved, Stephanie Faw and Diane Torry. He also deeply loved and enjoyed his grandchildren, Rob, Heather, and Haylee Bruton and Ciara Torry. Steve came to Montana in 1994 on a work assignment and he decided that this was where he would stay. As all who knew him can testify, when Steve found something he enjoyed he couldn't wait to share it with all who would listen. He will be remembered with smiles and laughter and with stories of his enthusiasm for life. He was greatly loved.
