Michael (Mike) David Fauver, born on July 11, 1949, in Hamilton, Ohio, to the late Roland and Ruth Fauver, passed away peacefully on October 8, 2025, at the age of 76, following complications from a fall.
Mike was a long-time employee of the Broward County Planning Department, where he rose to the title of Chief Inspector before his retirement. He lived in Broward County, Florida, for 73 years before relocating to his son's home in Hogansville, Georgia.
In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his cherished wife, Claudia N. Fauver; his beloved stepmother who raised him, Joyce M. Fauver; and siblings Larry, Don, and Judy.
He is survived by his stepson Jay (Karen) Hanlon of Hogansville, GA, and stepdaughter Beth (Michael) Donnelly of Conway, SC; grandchildren Jessica (Jeff) Henderson, Griffin (Kuria) Hanlon, and Garrett Hanlon, all of Hogansville, GA; Malory (Danny) Schillow of Minneola, FL; and Haley Jahrmarkt of Southampton, NY; along with two great-granddaughters, Olivia Henderson and Shiloh Hanlon of Hogansville, GA.
He is also survived by two sisters-in-laws, Debra (John) Gruner of Bowdon, GA, and Linda Napier of Melbourne, FL, as well as several nieces and nephews.
A special acknowledgment is extended to his longtime neighbors on NW 58th Street in Coconut Creek, FL, who cared for and looked after him in recent years and were loved like family by Mike.
The family will have a service at a later date.
