Veronica Payseno Obituary
May 2, 1924 - September 23, 2017
Salem - Veronica was born on her family farm in Mt. Angel, Oregon to Mary and Bernard Duda. Ready for her next adventure, Veronica gently left this one at the age of 93.
Veronica's life was framed by her faith and her family. She knew the love of a good man, her one and only Lloyd. They welcomed eight children and built a home of hospitality, an endless supply of baked bread and cinnamon rolls and a place for everyone at the table. She loved color, beauty and fun-her back yard of flowers, her sewing projects, dancing at every wedding and her delight in her 15 grandkids and 16 great-grands.
Veronica graduated from Mt. Angel College and taught at Sublimity and Brooks Elementary for 25 years and loved it, mostly! She traveled the world and much of Oregon.
She loved God and her Catholic faith, raising her kids at St. Vincent de Paul where they all attended school: Susan, Louise-Gary Miller, Eileen-Thomas Berning, Thomas-Margo Reding, Joann-Ernie Pech, Annette-Douglas Thompson, Ruth and Beth. Her siblings: Sister Bernarda OSB, Mildred-Justin Bradley, Agnes-Gerald Zollner and Gabe Marsh, Walter and Lorraine, Clarence and Dell, and Bill and Beverly Duda. Her family included Joan and Art Jeffries, Harold and Frances and Ken and Barbara Payseno.

I had Mrs. Payseno as my 4th and 5th grade teacher at Brooks Elementary School. I loved her as my teacher! She was wonderful! I remember that she would read to the class after recess each day. Where the Red Fern Grows was one of my favorites plus so many other books. I can still see the way she would hold the book as she read it to the class, then show us the pictures. The quiet way she would walk up and down the narrow isles in that small modular classroom. She had a very special gift of teaching. You all will be in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. May God comfort you and give you peace to know that she is enjoying her new Heavenly Home.
Sincerely,
Kathy (McCullough ) Pattee
