Arthur Faubion Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by J.A. McCormack Sons Funeral Home on Oct. 24, 2025.
Arthur Ray Faubion (Art), 77 of Binghamton died suddenly on October 21, 2025. He was predeceased by his wfe of 28 years, Patricia Faubion; his father, Robert Faubion and younger brother, Steve Faubion. He is survived by his cherished partner of 9 years, Jane; his daughter, Suzanne Walter; his mother, Alice Perkins; sisters Clovis and Peggy, and a brother Jack. Jane's family welcomed Art into their lives and are heartbroken to lose him. He is a stepdad to Jaclyn and partner Art; Anthony and his partner Veronica, and 5 grandchildren: Arthur, Gavin, Caroline, Isla, Cameron and Reilly.
Art grew up in Yakima, Washington and worked as a Dairy Farmer. He joined the Army and served bravely in Vietnam. After his service, he and Patricia moved to Tacoma, Washington to open a lighting store. Art had an interest in stained glass and a talent for making and fixing beautiful lamps. When his store closed, he decided to take his lamps on the road. Along the way, he developed an interest in vintage glassware. You couldn't find any anyone who knew more about vintage glassware than Art. As time went by, Art's interests grew and expanded to all kinds of antiques. Eventually, he opened an EBay store and had 2400 listings.
Art was an avid fisherman along with his bud Tung. He spent many hours fishing at his beloved lake house in New Milford, Pa. Art was a devoted dog dad to Cory, Lucy and Henry. They will miss him dearly.
There were some very special people in his life. Charles, who was like a son to him; Tung, who was a good friend and fishing buddy, and Craig who he served in Vietnam with. Art lived life unapologetically himself and was loved by many.

Burial will be in Spring Forest Cemetery, Binghamton. The family will receive friends at the J.A. McCormack Sons Funeral Home, Tuesday from 10 a.m. until time of service.
