      STEEP FALLS -- C. Priscilla Fecteau, 75, of Main Street, died at her home on Sunday, May 27, 2012, after a long battle with lung cancer. 
      She was born in Portland on Jan. 21, 1937, the daughter of Hormidas and Alma Cantara Gagne. She attended Catholic schools and was a graduate of Westbrook High School. She married Robert E. Fecteau on June 8, 1957.
      Priscilla worked at S.D. Warren and Saunders Bros. in Westbrook when she was younger, later at G.T.E. Sylvania in Standish for several years and for the Steep Falls Market for a few years. Priscilla and her husband were probably best known for owning and operating Fecteau's Wagon Wheel Ranch function hall in Steep Falls for many years.
      She was a member and officer of the Maine Country Music Association, and a member of the Circus Fans of America. 
      Priscilla enjoyed bowling, playing bingo and going to Foxwoods Casino. She enjoyed traveling with her husband to places like Hawaii and Europe. She also enjoyed knitting and crocheting and even took up line dancing for several years.
      Priscilla was a devoted wife, mother and grandmother and will be sadly missed by her loving family and many friends.
      Besides her parents, she was predeceased by her beloved husband, Robert Fecteau, who died in 1992. Surviving are three sons, David Fecteau and wife Sandra of Limington, Dana Fecteau and wife Pam of Limington and Dennis Fecteau and wife Debbie of Standish; a sister, Rachel Kemp of Lisbon; seven grandchildren; seven great-grandchildren; and several nieces, nephews and cousins.
      Visiting hours will be on Wednesday, May 30, from 6 to 8 p.m., at the Watson, Neal & York Funeral Home, 71 Maple St., Cornish. A funeral Mass will be on Thursday, May 31, at 9:30 a.m., at St. Matthew's Catholic Church on Dora Lane in Limerick with the Rev. Albert Colpitts as celebrant.
