With profound love and remembrance, we announce the passing of our beloved Dr. Jack W. Falsion of Brockport, NY, who departed this life on January 27 at the age of 87. He passed away peacefully.
Dr. Jack W. Falsion was born on May 1, 1937, in Rochester, NY, to Andrew and Mildred Falsion. He spent his early years in Flower City Park before moving to Rushford, NY. A talented athlete, he played soccer and basketball for Rushford High School before attending the University of Rochester, where he majored in history and played collegiate soccer.
Following his undergraduate studies, Dr. Falsion was accepted into the University of Pennsylvania School of Dentistry. After earning his dental degree, he served as a captain in the U.S. Army Dental Corps in Colorado for four years. Upon completing his military service, he settled in Brockport, NY, where he established his dental practice.
Dr. Falsion had a deep passion for world travel, particularly Egypt, where his love for Egyptology and Archaeology flourished. He was an avid historian with a keen interest in Civil War and World War I history, often collecting and researching historical artifacts. He also enjoyed cataloging art, movies, and sharing his acquired knowledge with others. He loved watching his children and grandchildren play sports at all levels.
A devoted husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, Dr. Falsion cherished his family above all else. He is predeceased by his parents, Andrew and Mildred Worthington Falsion; his sister, Karene Mower Greene; and his son, Jeffrey Scott Falsion. He is survived by his loving wife, Daphne Aylor Franke; his daughter, Kimberly Falsion-Flemming; his sons, Darren, Brad, and Christopher Falsion; his ten adored grandchildren: Bethany, Miles, Montana, Brooke, Taylor, Savannah, Nathan, Nolan, Logan, and Brianna; and five great-grandchildren: Taylor, Roman, Houston, Orion, and Wrenley. His legacy of love, laughter, and generosity will forever live on in our hearts.
A service will be planned for late spring/early summer in Brockport, NY. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations be made in his memory to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and the Tunnel to Towers Foundation.
Dr. Jack W. Falsion will be dearly missed but never forgotten. His love and guidance will remain with us always.
