Obituary of Anne Marie Pauley

Please share a memory of Anne to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
DOB 07/21/1951 DOD 01/30/2025 Written and provided by family. Anne Marie Pauley,73, passed away peacefully on January 30, 2025, in Othello, Washington. Born on July 21, 1951 in Whangarei, New Zealand. Anne lived a life defined by resilience, love and an indomitable spirit. Anne received her education at Hamilton East School in New Zealand before embarking on a career that reflected her dedication and strong work ethic. She began as a cashier at Woolworths in New Zealand before moving to the United States, where she worked as a Trim Coordinator for Carnation and later Nestle in Othello. Her career concluded with early retirement from Simplot due to health challenges. Despite these obstacles, Anne's determination shone brightly throughout her life. Anne found joy in gardening, solving puzzles, knitting, playing Bingo, and spending time with her cherished grandchildren. She was an avid fan of "Law & Order" and shared a special bond with her beloved cats, Scratcher and KC. Those who knew Anne will remember her as a generous, serious yet humorous loving- and truly one of a kind. A heart transplant recipient who lived nearly 17 additional years thanks to the gift of organ donation, Anne faced numerous health challenges with remarkable courage. Even as she battled lung cancer and COPD with unyielding strength, she remained a beacon of perseverance. Her family takes comfort in knowing she is now at peace--free from pain and reunited with her parents. Anne's family was the cornerstone of her world. She is survived by her loving husband, James Pauley; her children Carolyn Fale and Shane Fale; her grandchildren Kyle Foster, Kaleb Foster and Keira Foster; her great-grandson Nathan Foster; her step-children Tabby Vista-Pipper and Spencer; and her siblings Gloria Thompson and brothers Michael, Dennis and Noel Soich. She wa predeceased by her parents Ralph and Eunice Soich, her ex-husband Patrick Fale and daughter-in-law Chrissy Fale. Anne's memory will forever live on in the hearts of those who loved her. May she rest among the heavens. No services are currently planned at this time. If you would like to give a donation in Anne Pauley's name please give to a pet rescue of your choice.
