Patrick Walsh Faucher Sr.

Patrick Walsh Faucher Sr., 75, a lifelong resident of Fitchburg, MA, passed away on August 3, 2024.

Patrick was born September 4, 1948, a son of the late Ivor and Barbara (Walsh) Faucher, and was raised in Fitchburg. He was a warm, caring, and patient father who took time to teach his kids technical skills and life lessons, with a twist of humor. His dedication to family and shared knowledge was also evident in his service to the public.

Nearly 27 years later, he retired on September 12, 2003, as a Lieutenant. Patrick was beloved by friends and fellow funny, professional, intelligent, and detail-oriented.
