Exa Fay Hooten was born at home in Floydada, Texas to Maude Latham Hooten and Richard W. Hooten on Aug. 27, 1928. She was the oldest of Tom and Lula (Brady) Latham’s many grandchildren and she felt a strong need to set an example for her cousins. She was a lifetime member of the Church of Christ and lived at Christian Village in Abilene throughout its tenure as a retirement facility.

During the times that her mother completed graduate coursework at Texas Tech, Exa Fay lived with Maude’s parents on their Masters Community farm while her brother, Alton Ray, stayed with some of Maude’s siblings.
