Katie, ‘Moe’ & Faye

MoeFaye Travel, Inc. is a small company, owned and operated by a married couple; senior citizens who took early retirement from their regular professions. Faye Hochnedel-Greenwood was a Home Economist/County Extension Agent in Sevier County, and G. D. ‘Moe’ Greenwood is a Professional Engineer who headed the Planning Dept. at U.T. Hospital in Knoxville.

Faye organized annual tours for Sevier County homemakers as part of her job; while ‘Moe’ took some training and worked in a Travel Agency for a while after retirement. They started volunteering at a Senior Center; putting together trips in an old 14 passenger Dodge Van. Increasing numbers of travelers soon required chartering motor coaches. After 4-5 years as volunteers at the Center, they became the coordinators for the Covenant Senior Health PASSPORT Travel Program. 2010 is their eighth year in that capacity. During 2007 they added a third member to the team, Katie Arwood. Katie is helping with reservations, some of the office functions, plus she functions as a contract tour manager on many of the coach (and occasionally some of the major) trips.

They all love to travel on their own and have visited all but one or two of the states in the USA; plus many countries in Europe, Asia, Central America, Canada, the Caribbean, Australia, New Zealand and Fiji. When they are not conducting tours for PASSPORT, Faye & ‘Moe’ are out scouting locations which can be used for future tour destinations. They enjoy their jobs and it rubs off on the folks who travel with them.

You are invited to join PASSPORT travelers and make your reservation on one or more of the trips. In 2010 they have 25 trips scheduled . . . from a 1-day shopping trip to an 11- day tour to the PASSION PLAY in Oberammergau, Germany, with touring in Northern Italy, Switzerland & Germany. . . with a lot of variety in between.
