To the entire Faulk family and Keith's many, many friends my deepest condolences. I remember Keith as a truly good person who was dedicated to public service to his hometown of Gainesville and Alachua County. I will always remember him fondly from growing up in Highland Court Manor and spending what seemed like endless summers at the HCM pool in a time that seemed much simpler and more innocent than those we live in now. RIP Keith.
