"Well, BUCK FAUSSETT how are you today." "Oh I'm alright, how's Poor Old Grant Knight"
That was the greeting six mornings a week for almost 20 years. Right before a great cup of Buck Faussett coffee.
Red Duke once said, if I were asked who was the finest man he had ever known, it would be Buck Faussett. The finest man I've ever known and the best cup of coffee I've ever had. I will miss you both.

Buck was one of the best Christian men I ever had the pleasure to know. At the papermill or at church, Buck was a man of God.
