Mrs. McFaul was a lifelong parishioner of St. Bernard Catholic Church, where she was a member of the Altar Society and the Catholic Daughters of the Americas - Court St. Paul No. 1434. Lola was actively involved with her church parish and St. Bernard Catholic School. She worked as a substitute teacher for the St. Martin Parish School Board for a several years, and was better known to her students as, 'Ms. Mac' - they loved her and she loved them as well. When she retired from substitute teaching, she then dedicated her free time to caring for her grandchildren, whom she loved and adored. Lola was an avid reader and enjoyed spending time outdoors - she loved gardening. She was a wonderful cook and loved to bake, treasuring any occasion to which she could do both for family gatherings.

She is preceded in death by her parents, Milton and Hilda Broussard Dauterive; her husband, James Charles "J.C." McFaul; a son, Jude McFaul; two sisters, Shirley D. Angelle and her husband, Burt, and Lucille D. Campbell and her husband, Ord; and her brother, Edward Dauterive and his wife, Barbara 'Bobbie.'
