Bob was a twin whose older twin was stillborn. He was born on April 2, 1931, Loa, Utah to Charles and Dortha (Taylor) Faulkner. Bob's bio is work in progress. However, some highlights are that he dabbled as a boxer in his young adult life then moved to California where he was a Jockey along with his brother Merrill. He was great with horses and had an affinity to break the will of and train horses. Unfortunately, he did have a few breaking/training accidents with the horses that led to injuries and surgeries ultimately ending his career as a Jockey. Bob went on to train horses in Texas and New Mexico. He wrote to his parents and family almost daily. After visiting his parents 12/1986 Bob was never heard from again. We suspect foul play and still hope to find him and bring him home one day. Bob was witty and a very nice person. We all miss him terribly.
