KRISTY FAURE

1960 - 2025

Kristy died unexpectedly on June 18, 2025, on Whidbey Island, WA, with her beloved dogs close by.

Kristy was born in Livermore, CA., and graduated from Livermore High School. She was a gifted student, an All-Star Baseball player, and played tennis at Cal State East Bay, where she earned her BA degree. She wore many hats during her lifetime, working on a ranch during school, where her horse was boarded. She loved all animals, especially her Aussie Shepherd and Bouvier De Flander.

She did payroll for PGE and was a Hospice worker. She wrote letters for residents at a senior facility, donating much time. After moving to Cazadero, CA., with her lifetime partner, John Bishop, and their daughter, Roxanne, she became a Park Ranger in the Russian River area. After many parks closed, she went to Moss Landing and then to Whidbey Island at the suggestion of a friend. She was an excellent needleworker and sold her crafts at local farmers' markets. She played the piano, accordion, and had a lovely singing voice. She performed at the last Livermore Rodeo street dance.

She loved the outdoors and did landscaping, dog grooming and canine nosework classes under the mentorship of her friend, Dr. Georgia Edwards. Her own Aussie Shepherd won many ribbons.

She was extremely talented in all needlework, knitting, quilting, crocheting, and beadwork. She crocheted wigs for rag dolls being sent to remote villages in Mexico.

She was a master swimmer and taught classes at Mills College. She loved gardening, and photos of her flowers are breathtaking.

She was happily looking forward to moving back to Cazadero, to watch her daughter, Roxanne, pursue her PHD.

Her many friends hosted a Celebration on Whidbey Island, and her daughter and friends paid many loving tributes.

Your place in our hearts cannot be filled. Embrace the flowers, Kristy. You are now in the arms of your Dad, Paul Faure, and baby brother, Paul Raymond. Your beloved Aussie is by your side.
