Arthur E. Faulkner was born on November 2, 1940 to Ruby Mae and Howard Faulkner in Anniston, Alabama. He was a graduate of Anniston High School and attended Jacksonville State University where he played on the offensive line for the Gamecocks.
Arthur married Mary Ann, and they settled in Decatur where he served on the city council. He worked as a Certified Public Accountant for 45 years.
Arthur was generous, fun-loving, and the first to crack a colorful joke, easily making lifelong friendships with many clients and partners. He tried to retire a few times, but he just wasn’t a quitter; he was a rock, steady and strong.
Arthur left this life on August 10, 2018, and he is preceded in death by his wife, Mary Ann Faulkner; his brother, Pat Faulkner (Dianne) and his parents. He is survived by daughter, Lisa Dahlgren (George); son, Scott Faulkner (Lindsey); daughter, Kathy Youngren (Rob); grandson, Joshua Kostic (Nicole); granddaughter, Brooke Kostic; grandson, Gann Faulkner; granddaughter, Hattie Faulkner and granddaughter, Marley Youngren.
