Giselle Dianne Favero-Peck

Giselle Dianne Favero, of Sacramento, California, passed away on August 21, 2026, at the age of 51. Born July 18, 1975, she was the beloved daughter of the late Kenneth Favero and Judith Lynne Favero. 

Giselle was the loving mother of Lilydanin Peck, proud grandmother of Austin Madero, and cherished sister of Kenna Favero, Regina Favero, Raquel Favero, Kenneth (Brooke) Favero, and Davia (Duke) Favero-Nelson. She was also the half-sister of Jan Chambers, Natalie Taggart, and Stacie Barnes. 

Giselle shared a special devotion to her daughter, grandson and many nieces and nephews. Each held a deeply important place in her heart. They cherished her perspective and often sought her advice, knowing Giselle would listen, understand, and offer the thoughtful insight that came so naturally to her. She took a genuine interest in their lives and loved them fiercely. To them, she was far more than an aunt - she was a trusted confidante, a source of wisdom, and someone they knew they could always turn to. The love, guidance, and memories she gave them will remain with them throughout their lives. 

As the baby of the four Favero sisters, Giselle brought laughter, energy, and an unforgettable personality to the group from the time she was just four years old. Together, the sisters spent years performing around the world as the Favero Sisters, creating extraordinary memories while entertaining audiences young and old. Even among such a talented group, Giselle stood out. She possessed a remarkable natural musical ability. During the sisters' a cappella performances, Giselle could hear and carry the difficult baritone harmony - a skill well beyond her years. She later began playing the drums, and it quickly became one of her greatest talents. As a young drummer, Giselle was captivating. Solo after solo, show after show, she had an extraordinary ability to steal the performance. Audiences were fascinated by this tiny little girl behind a drum set, playing with a confidence and skill few expected from someone so young. People would line up for hours for an autograph and a photograph with one of the world's youngest professional drummers. She was truly a sight to behold. 

But music was only one expression of Giselle's remarkable creativity. She was extraordinarily artistic and multi-talented, with gifts in textile art, mixed media, cooking, instrumentation, and harmony. She had an eye for complexity and multidimensional art and could move naturally from one creative form to another. She could visualize, connect ideas, and see possibilities others might miss. Her creativity was truly off the charts. 

Giselle also possessed a sharp wit and a wonderful sense of humor that made her so much fun to be around. Even as a little girl, she seemed to notice everything. She had an extraordinary perception of human nature and often understood far more than she let on. She was good at her core and smart as a whip. A voracious reader and researcher, Giselle had a seemingly endless curiosity about the world around her. She had a keen ability to sort through information, question what she encountered, and distinguish fact from fiction. She was observant, intuitive, deeply perceptive, and capable of seeing things others sometimes overlooked. 

As she grew older, Giselle worked to find her own path and navigate life's difficulties on her own terms. Her journey was not always an easy one. She faced an uphill road at times and carried challenges that others could not always see or understand. Still, she continued to find her way and did the best she could with the unique set of circumstances before her. Her life should never be defined simply by its difficult chapters. 

To those who knew Giselle when she was young, she will forever be remembered as that tiny little girl with the quick mind, rare musical talent, watchful eyes, and enormous personality. To those fortunate enough to know her throughout her life, she was so much more - a daughter, sister, mother, wife, grandmother, aunt, musician, artist, researcher, creator, confidante, and wonderfully funny human being whose life was far more complex and beautiful than any few words could ever capture. And to her family, she will always simply be Giselle - our little & big sister, our wife, our mother, our daughter, our grandmother, and our Aunt Selly. 

Giselle was a giant piece of our family, and the place she held can never be replaced. Life was not always easy for her, and there were parts of Giselle's journey that many people could not fully see and may never completely understand. Perhaps no one could explain that better than Giselle herself. 

In her own words: “Walk in my shoes and you shall come to know and understand me.” 

At this time, our family has not yet finalized memorial arrangements. A private family memorial may be held in the coming months to gather, remember, and celebrate Giselle’s life. Family members may contact Kenna Favero or Kenny Favero for additional information, including addresses and memorial details as they become available.
