Paul Walter faya, of White Marsh, 82, was born on Decemer 9th, 1942, to his parents Julia and Walter Faya.

On Friday, June 30, 2025, Paul underwent robotic hernia repair surgery and, sadly, suffered complications after returning home over the weekend. Around 11 p.m. on Monday evening, his wife Peggy recognized signs of those complications, but unfortunately did not make it and left us on july 1st.

Paul is survived by his loving wife of 54 years, Peggy Faya; his son Edward Faya and wife Christine Faya; his daughter Kristina Herbts; his granddaughter Ellie Faya; his grandson Samuel Faya; his brother Fred; his beloved dog, Taffy; and many dear friends, students, and extended family members.

Paul lived a full and loving life. Before choosing a life that included a wife and children, paul wanted to live a life as a jesuit priest, but instead he held on to his faith in jesus and attended college at the Loyola university in chicago where he got his philosophy degree, and lead a long career of 40 years from there many students and teachers at lochraven highschool and Towson highschool got to not only know him, but love and adore the man and teacher he became. Paul was not only a man who had a strong passion for his career but had a strong passion for his family, kids, and eventually grand kids. He was funny witty, and charming but the best thing about paul faya was his heart and the love he carried, he will truly be missed.
