Zelda Marie Fauth

Zelda Marie Fauth passed away on May 15, 2021 in Whittier, California at the age of 88. She is now in the presence of her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. She was born on December 1, 1932 in Orion, IL to Niel and Eleanor Hogren. After graduating from high school in Minnesota she studied to become a Registered Nurse. She loved helping people through her work in the medical profession.

Zelda and Curt Fauth were married on June 25, 1955 in Minnesota and together they raised five children while living in Minnesota, then California, back to Minnesota and finally back to California, where they have been since 1984.

Curt retired from the pastorate in Whittier in 2007 and they have been living at Oakmont of Whittier for the past three years. Zelda was a great pastor's wife, a loving and caring Mom, and she used her gift of hospitality often. She loved being a member of a Women's Bible Study group wherever she lived.

Zelda is survived by her husband, Curt, of nearly 66 years and her five children: Denise (Mike) Ascheri, Dan (Kim) Fauth, Dave (Sue) Fauth, Doug (Kathy) Fauth, and Daryl (Mary) Fauth, and ten grandchildren: Shannon (Kevin) O'Reilly, Tyler (Alison) Fauth, Kristi (Stephen) McCarty, Leah (Robert) Jackson, Steven Fauth, Shane Ascheri, Madelyn Fauth, Alison Fauth, Sam Fauth and Abigail Fauth and seven great-grandchildren: Elliana O'Reilly, Bradley O'Reilly, Ryan McCarty, Ben Fauth, Tyler McCarty, Luke Fauth and Haley Jackson and one sister, Rhonda Carroll.

Memorial service arrangements are still in the planning stages but we will definitely have the service at Whittier Area Community Church.
