Obituary: Mcfaul, Patricia “Peacha”

Age 87

McFAUL, Patricia “Peacha” (Age 87) After loving life, family, church, golf and bridge for almost nine decades, Peacha went to meet her Savior on December 13, 2013.

Known and loved by many, her vibrant personality and genuine interest in people created smiles and warmth wherever she went.

Peacha was born to Justin and Rose McWilliams in Spokane on January 19, 1926.

She met her husband Ted on a blind date, married him in 1951 and together they raised six children in Great Falls, Montana.

Peacha’s love for sports extended from watching her children compete throughout college, to winning golf tournaments and being awarded a Golden Putter for her hole-in-one.

Peacha is survived by her husband, Ted; brother, Dick McWilliams; six children, Gerry (Diana), Kathy, Brian (Mary Jo), Chris (Renate), Mary Grahn (Matt) and Greg (Loreen); twelve grandchildren and one great-grandchild.

A Rosary will be held at 7PM on Friday at St. Augustines, 428 W. 19th Ave., and her funeral is 10 AM on Saturday, December 21, at St. Augustine Catholic Church in Spokane.

Memorial contributions can be made to the Sisters of the Holy Names of Jesus and Mary.
