​John Falk:  With heavy hearts, we share the passing of John C. Falk Sr., our recently retired treasurer and Lifetime Member of the Central Ohio Chapter of SFPE. John passed away peacefully on October 10, 2025, at age 79, surrounded by his loving family.

​

For 33 years, John served as our treasurer, guiding the chapter with integrity and wisdom. His 44-year career at Capital Fire Protection Co. and NICET Level IV certification in sprinkler system design reflected his passion for excellence, inspiring us all to learn and grow. Known for his sharp wit and steady presence, John was a pillar of our community.

We extend our deepest condolences to John’s family.
