Frank Faughn Obituary

Frank Robert Faughn, Jr.

October 14, 1951 - March 6, 2025

In loving memory of Frank Robert Faughn, Jr., we are saddened to announce his passing on Thursday, March 6, 2025, at the age of 73.

The heart of a good man is reflected in his actions as he brings good things out of the good stored in his heart. Frank was a good man. A good older brother to Kathy (LeBaron), Mike, Don, Paul, and Julie (Krenk). A good friend, tax man, devoted Christian, bowler, Husker fan, listener, breakfast maker, Keno player (maybe), and a cherished husband to Coleen, father to Minde (Kevin) and Jarrad (Kimberlee) as well as a proud grandfather to Grant, Barrett, Leland, Lynae, Brody and JaRon. He was a blessing to his family and treasured his friendships dearly. He was a man of integrity who had a big laugh and a gentle spirit.

Our comfort comes from knowing he is being welcomed home with open arms by his beloved Coleen, his parents Frank and Florence and the God who loves him.

Please join us for a Rosary, Thursday March 20th at 7:00 p.m. and a Funeral Mass, Friday March 21st at 10:30 a.m. at St. Michael Catholic Church at 9101 South 78th Street, Lincoln.

Please direct memorials to the family. A memorial brick will be purchased for the new baseball stadium at Norris in honor of Frank and Coleen and donations will be put toward player scholarships for Omaha and Hickman/Norris student athletes.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

I´ve known Frank since ST Teresa days. He was always a great guy with a great smile. Friendly to everyone.
I will not be able to attend the funeral but will be thinking of him and his family.

I first met Frank at work and later bumped into him playing keno. Frank had a great and infectious laugh. He was so full of life and always had a smile on his face. Rest in peace, you will be missed.
