Clarice Ann Koch (Mcfaul)

June 12, 1926 — November 22, 2015

Age 89, passed away on Sunday, November 22, 2015, with her children at her side. She was born June 12, 1926 in Ione, Washington, to Gerald and Kathryn McFaul. She married Arthur C. Koch on November 27, 1948, in Ione, WA. She moved to Roseburg, Oregon in 1956, and then moved to her "mountain" in Sutherlin in 1972, until her passing. She was a member of St. Joseph's Catholic Church from 1956 to 1972, and then a member of St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church from 1972 until her passing. She was deeply committed to helping others within her church community with active membership in Alter Society, and a founding volunteer for St. Vincent De Paul Society in Sutherlin.

She worked for over 30 years for the Douglas County Fair in the Exhibit hall. She was an avid participant in Sutherlin Knolls Women's Golf. She loved to play bridge and travel with friends and family.

Her love of her faith, her cherished family, her loving support of those in need, her great joy in sharing time with her grandchildren and great grandchildren were what was and shall forever be our "Grammy"

She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband of 44 years, Arthur Koch in 1993; and her brothers Larry McFaul in 1933, Gerald "Gerry" McFaul in 1997, and Edmond "Ted" McFaul in 2014.

She is survived by her son Mark Koch and Patty; daughter Katie Bebeau and Randy; beloved sister-in-law Marjorie McFaul of Spokane, WA; grandchildren Amy Boehm and Mike, Teresa Bauer and Courtney, Chelsea Hughes and Jake, Daniel Bebeau, and Stacie Zenev and Trevor; great-grandchildren Hailey, Sophia, Markis, Blake, Kinzley, Shealynn, Adisyn and Charlie; many nieces and nephews; and her loving caregivers Susan Roland and Hannah Platz.

A Funeral Mass will be held at St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church on Saturday, December 5, 2015, at 12:30 p.m., with Fr. Jose Manuel officiating. A luncheon for family and friends will follow Mass. Sutherlin Chapel of the Roses is honored to serve the family.
