Leila Richeson Fauble, lovingly known as Lea by her family and friends, went to be with the Lord on Sunday, July 3, 2016 at the age of 95. She was born February 22, 1921 in Verna, New Jersey to Elmer N. and Lela (Helton) Dunlap. Lea was a loving wife, devoted mother, grandmother and great grandmother. She worked in banking for many years at Oklahoma National Bank, where she retired as Vice President. During this time Lea also had served as President of Oklahoma City Credit Women’s Breakfast club. She loved to play the organ, sing and dance. (Lea even danced on her 95th Birthday!) Cooking and baking in the kitchen were two of her many passions. She loved flowers, traveling in her motor home and collecting rocks along the way. Lea especially enjoyed looking at family pictures and playing Skip-Bo. All of Lea’s dogs that she had during her lifetime were part of her family and were very special and important to her. She loved all of her family and friends and will be missed by all.
