Ed was a fine man.  My condolences for family & friends.  Knew him way back in day.  He’s with his Lord now.  RIP Eddie

Eddie was my second pastor and the man who eventually led me to the Lord Jesus, of Whom is the greatest gift, many years after I had left the church. But God in His great mercy never allowed the words of holy scripture Eddie said to me to leave my heart, and for that I will be eternally thankful to my blessed Savior for placing such a loving friend in my life. The pain in my heart is only superficial because I know that my friend and brother in the Lord is in paradise, and before long I will join him in the glory of heaven where we will praise God together forever because of the tremendous love He has shown us. That is the hope I have because of the promises of God and I know that Eddie’s faith has finally been made sight. Soli Deo Gloria always and forever.

Bro. Eddie I remember first time we came to Bolton.  (About 27 years ago) You would get so excited while preaching the word.   As the years went by our families did several camping trips together.  Those were great memories.   You were more than a pastor to us!  You were a friend.  You married our two boys.  Blessed our six grandkids.  Buried dad, mom and Michael’s dad.   Michael is going to miss calling you on your birthday.  Sorry we can’t be there today… Michael had surgery Monday not up to the two drive.
Praying for Zach today it’s hard losing your dad.

Praying for the Faulkner family, especially Zach, Nikki, Ford and Ella. 

Mr. Faulkner touched many lives over the course of his career, and is the true definition of performing the Lords work.

Brother Eddie is going to missed so much by everyone who knew him or just met him. He had such a joyous spirit around him. He was never to busy for anyone in need of him. Terry and I have only known Brother Eddie for 19 years. Rest in peace BrotherEddie. We love and going to miss you. Terry and Carol Turner

Eddie and I have been friends since junior high school. Though we only saw each other on rare occasions because we lived so far apart, every conversation felt like we had just spoken the day before. We had planned to meet for coffee, but sadly, we never got the chance. Eddie was a true friend — warm, genuine, and always an inspiration to me. I’ll deeply miss his easy laughter, his kind heart, and the way he could make anyone feel valued. Rest in peace, my dear friend. You’ll always be remembered with love.

Brother Eddie truly embodied the heart and soul of our church and our family's life. It's amazing how someone can be there through so many significant moments-those pivotal events that shape our lives, the weddings, funerals, baptisms, revivals, and family reunions.  The fact that he was also there for our family during such a personal time, ministering to our dad in his last days, speaks volumes about the depth of his care and devotion.

It is such a heavy loss, especially when Brother Eddie was such a constant presence for so long. His legacy, though, will live on in all our memories and the ways he impacted so many lives. He was a wonderful man of God and will be missed tremendously.

I am going to miss not just a friend , but my best friend. Eddie was exactly what a Pastor was supposed to be. He did it all. ,  funerals , weddings. , hospital visits. , counciling. ,  preaching. ,  etc.  He loved his congregation and they loved him. We loved talking Bible and bouncing thoughts off each other. Prayers for Ronnie and Makayla for strength and peace. Eddie , my first thought was you seeing Jesus then rushing to find your mother. This is not goodbye , but see you later.

Eddie, you faithfully carried out your calling as our Pastor at Bolton Full Gospel Church for 36 1/2 years.  Speaking for myself:

• You were there to hold me up when Roy died, and every day since. I could not have made it without your love, prayers and support.
• You officiated at my wedding to Jake and were there for us during our 20 years together.
• You were there when my beloved Sandy died, and every day since. I’m still so lost without my joined-at-the-hip sibling.
• You were there when my beloved Daddy Doc died, and every day since.
• You were there with me, holding me up in prayer, visiting, ministering to me during Jake’s five months in the hospital, and you were there when he took his last breath as we sang “Turn Your Eyes upon Jesus.”  And every day since.

It’s hard to imagine your not being present in my life, Eddie. Our temporary loss, Heaven’s gain. Bettye Perkins

I will always hold a special place in my heart for Pastor Eddie and his beautiful wife Ronnie...with all the biblical guidance through the years and the prayers...they both mean the world to me...Pastor Eddie you will be missed tremendously!--Carrie Jones

May God bless you all  in ways Eddie always preached about that wonders and miracles and life everlasting is Gods ultimate prize  for us all for believing and receiving as Eddie  taught the Word.

I remember when Eddie first came around Bolton with Deb and Mackie. He was pitiful. We prayed so much for him and lo and behold God did a miracle for Him and us for 36+ years.  
We love you and pray sincerely for God’s best for you all. 
Eddie was my pastor and friend at all times.

Its hard to put into words to express how Brother Eddie impacted our lives after the 27 years i had the privilege to know him.He was more than Pastor he was Family in my eyes. Eddie ,Ronnie, Zach all sacrificed time away from each other to allow him to share the lord to our little Country Church .Eddie was a true disciple he lived, and breathed of Jesus .While we are all here sad currently i can honestly say he left a eternal influence on more people than he might not ever know.Eddie was human, but a true virtue of how a christian should represent the kingdom of god.We love you and miss you, but will never forget the love you gave us regardless of time of day you were always there. Pain is now gone, and Eternal life has been recieved !

BROTHER Eddie was always there when you needed him.He was there when my wife started getting sick. Always  was there when me or Judy had to go into the hospital. Thank GOD HE WAS THERE IN BROWNSVILLE TO DO JUDYS FUNERAL IN 2015 WITH ICE ON THE GROUND. TO KNOW HIM YOU HAD TO LOVE HIM.THANK GOD FOR HIM AND SISTER RONNIE HIS FIRST LADY.WILL ALWAYS MISS YOU BROTHER EDDIE. BUT YOU ARE HEALED NOW.LOVE BILL HART

I just want to start by saying Brother Eddie was truly a faithful and loving man as well as a pastor to many throughout the years. He was always going to the hospitals and as well as the homes in times of need. I know he has always been good to my fami!y and we greatly appreciated him for everything he has ever done for us. We loved him dearly as well as his family❤ My condolences and hugs wrapped with prayers for his family and loved ones.❤ From the moment he walked away from this old earth he stepped right into the presence of God. He received his reward as God said to him "Well done thy good and faithful servant".

Bro. Eddie Faulkner was my pastor for the first 21st of my life. I was saved and baptized under his ministry. I’ll never forget the impact he had on my life and the things he spoke over me. My greatest memory will be the men’s prayer breakfast. Listening to him sing with a big smile on his face while smelling the heavenly smells of sausage gravy.
