RIP, Michael Fallon MSC
The sad news that Michael Fallon has died, after a short time in hospital. 16th April was his 88th birthday.
Michael was the youngest of the three Fallon brothers who joined the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart. Jim Fallon was a long time missionary in Papua New Guinea and Provincial Councillor. John was a long time missionary in the Northern Territory, Bathurst Island.
Michael made his first profession on Fabry the 26th 1955. He studied at the Sacred Hearts Monastery, Croydon, and was ordained 26th of June, 1961.
Michael’s initial ministry was an MSC education at Daramalan College and Chevalier College. He worked in chaplaincy at the University of New South Wales.
Michael was best known for his writings especially his extensive commentaries on the Bible, both Old Testament and New Testament. But, there were quite a number of other books over the decades. Michael was also well known and welcomed as a speaker on biblical and theological issues as well as spirituality. He produced many audio tapes as well as video sessions of his talks. Only recently, he gave a talk to the laity of the Chevalier Family at Douglas Park.
