Richard worked for Joe over the years at Beech. We were with him and family on his 90th Birthday, happy they thought of us. We enjoyed visiting them in their home on special occasions. Several of his former workers, Richard and I enjoyed visiting him and Barbara in their retirement home. Good memories.

Condolences and prayers to family and friends. Mr. Faber and I would cheer on Friends University basketball when watching the games. He would tell me what the coach Dale Faber needed to do in certain situations of the game. I always agreed with him. I appreciated his company and his knowledge of life´s experiences that he shared with me. Mr. Faber had a quiet spirit and a good heart. Thanks for sharing Mr. Faber. Rest In Eternal Peace.
