In Memoriam

Robert Scott Faller

Robert Faller, a beloved individual whose departure on July 12, 2023 has left a profound void in our hearts, will forever be remembered by those most fortunate to have known him. Known affectionately to his friends and colleagues Bobby, he lived life with gusto and by his own rules.

The sixth child of Elaine and Harry Faller of Port Jervis, New York, Rob often referred to himself as the “Black Sheep.” He was a man who lived in the moment and often reminded us that he had had 10 times more fun in his life than anyone he knew. His love of adventure began when he talked his father into purchasing him a dirt bike upon completion of his Bar Mitzvah. From there it was motorcycles, sports cars, and a few beloved Toyota Land Cruisers, which helped him get into many tight places and created countless shared memories with close friends.
