Faye Johanna Peters

Faye was born in Storm Lake, Iowa to Wilbur Frank and Mary Ann Ludwig on February 26, 1945. One of twelve children Faye knew the importance of family and helping one another. She attended Briar Cliff University in Sioux City, Iowa and graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Sociology. She then went on to become an elementary school teacher and touched the lives of countless children over the course of 34 years.

She married Thomas Anthony Peters on August 3, 1968 in Varina, Iowa. They moved to Colorado in 1970 for the beautiful mountains and mild winters. In July 1975, they welcomed their first daughter Deidre Ann, then in February 1978 they were blessed again with their second daughter Andrea Marie. Faye always had a stack of books or a craft project to pass the time, not that she ever sat still very long. Her daily walks allowed her to enjoy the peace and quiet that the outdoors provided her.

Her greatest enjoyment in life came from her five grandchildren: Abbygail Faye, Alexis Vivian, Kensley Ann, Hannah Elizabeth, and Griffin Anthony. They spent many hours together reading, crafting, and playing at parks all over town. She made each child feel special and leaves a legacy in each of their hearts.

Faye is survived by her husband, Tom Peters; daughter, Deidre Peters-Muleski and her husband Keith Muleski along with their three daughters; and daughter, Andrea Jones and her husband Nick Jones along with their son and daughter; as well as four brothers, five sisters, and 34 nieces and nephews.

Memorial services will be held at 11:00am on Thursday August 9, 2018 at Mountain View Presbyterian Church. 2500 N. Garfield Ave. Loveland, CO 80538. Light lunch to follow services.
