Reuben Herbert Faul, 89, Sawyer, went home to be with the Lord on Friday, January 15, 2010 in an Orange, CA hospital.
Reuben was born on January 31, 1920 on the family farm in Brillian Township of Ward County, near Sawyer, ND, to John and Louise (Vix) Faul. He was reared on the family farm and attended Haugen Johnson and Hans Christenson rural schools prior to graduating from Velva High School in 1938.

In addition, he drove coal truck during the winter of 1941-42, was employed in the construction of the Glasgow, MT air force base and in the Long Beach, CA shipyards. He returned to ND in 1943 to assist his father with the operation of the family farm. Reuben had found his true calling in life and thoroughly enjoyed farming and all it entails.
Reuben was united in marriage to Elizabeth "Betty" Henke on October 23, 1949 at Sawyer. They made their home on the farm until the spring of 1964, when they built a house in Sawyer, so their children could be closer to school. He continued farming until his retirement in 1979. However, he continued to assist his family and neighbors with their farming and remained very active in the Sawyer community.

He was also active with the Souris Basin Transportation Board, where he served as vice-president for more than 10 years. He was a longtime member of the Sawyer Lions Club.
