He was born August 31, 1935, in Topeka, Kansas, the son of Delbert and Nettie (Jacobs) Faulk. He graduated from Dover High School in 1954. He was a US Army veteran, serving from 1957 until 1960.

He was an avid woodworker, making several items for their home, in addition to gifts for his family, from a baby cradle and crib to a china hutch, as well as toys and stepstools for his grandkids and great-grandkids. He also enjoyed hunting, mostly duck and pheasant, making yearly hunting trips to western Kansas with friends and family; fishing, birdwatching, and working jigsaw puzzles.
