The Crowley VFW Post will honor Mr. Faulk with the playing of “Taps” and the folding of the U.S. Flag. He was married for 50 years to Lois Jane Sheets Faulk and was the proud father of five children, father-in-law to four, grandfather of 14 and great-grandfather of one. Mr. Faulk was preceded in death by his parents, three brothers, Leonard C. Jr., Boyd and Hoyt, and one son, Daniel Wade Faulk. He leaves behind a legacy of love, family, and tradition. To cherish his memories he leaves his wife, Lois Jane Faulk of Crowley; three daughters, Candy Kelly of Crowley, Jane Duhon of Mermentau and Jean Guidry of Crowley; one son, Russell Tab Faulk of Crowley; three sons-in-law, Tommy Kelly of Crowley, Alden Duhon of Mermentau and Jeff Guidry of Crowley; one daughter-in-law, Yong Faulk Heuermann of Julesburg, Colo.; one sister, Annette Faulk Keene of Crowley; one brother, A. Ray Faulk of Westlake; 14 grandchildren; one great-grandchild; honorary grandchildren; and a host of nieces, nephews, great nieces, great nephews, Godchildren, cousins and friends. He lived a great life, full of integrity and devotion to family and friends. Wade Faulk is tremendously loved and will be missed by all who knew him -- including his devoted little companion, De-De, his dachshund.
