Her obituary appeared on 25 Feb 1987 in the Tribune Press in Gouverneur, St. Lawrence, New York, as follows: "Faye M. Ross. Faye M. Ross, a native of Gouverneur, and a resident of Harwich Port, Maine [sic] since 1964, died on Saturday, Feb 14 at the Cape Cod Hospital in Hyannis, Maine [sic]. She was born to Mr. and Mrs. Charles D. Miller of Gouverneur on Sept. 26, 1892 and attended Gouverneur public schools.
"Mrs. Ross was a long time member of the First Presbyterian Church of Gouverneur the Women's Society and the Twentieth Century Club. She played piano for the Sunday School for many years. She learned to play the organ on the Baldwin organ in the recreation room of that day and went on to play the three-manual organ in the church sanctuary a few times under the tutelage of the church organist.
"In 1964 she moved to Harwich Port on Cape Cod to be near her daughter. There she was an active member of the Dorcas Society of the Pilgrim Church.
"Six years ago she moved to an apartment in Pine Oaks village in Harwich where she spent many happy hours playing the organ in the Community Room and making friends through her music.
"On the occasion of her 90th birthday she was honored at a tea given by friends in the Village and entertained them with a half hour of organ music.
"A memorial service will be conducted for Mrs. Ross by her son-in-law, the Rev. A. John Skeirik, at the Community Room of the Whitcom Building, Pine Oaks Village, on Sunday, March 1, at 3:30 p.m. Her ashes will be placed in the family plot in Gouverneur at a future date.
"Mrs. Ross is survived by a daughter, Betsey Ross Skeirik, of Harwich Port who graduated from Gouverneur High School with the Class of 1941." [http://nyshistoricnewspapers.org/lccn/sn93063671/1987-02-25/ed-1/seq-10/]
