Margaret Faye
Margaret Faye is the former mayor of Odyssey. Margaret also had a
love interest in John Whittaker, whom
she fell in love with, and proposed to. Whit turned her down, due to
their different spiritual and political beliefs.
Margaret may have been named as a dual reference to former British Prime
Minister Margaret Thatcher and French journalist Guillaume Faye.
Margaret Faye was the mayor of Odyssey, succeeding Tom
Riley and preceding Spencer Hicks. She is a very no-nonsense woman,
always doing her business. This is proved that whenever she comes into
Whit's End, the staff there know that something's up, despite her
repeated promise to 'come in sometime just for an ice cream cone'. She
also appears to be a moderate Christian as she and Whit appeared to
disagree with how their faith should play a role in government. She also
appears to have a respect for the separation of Church and State as with
what happened in
The Forgotten Deed.
