John J. LaFalce

Congressman LaFalce was a member of the Congressional Study Group on Germany to which I served as a consultant and rapporteur of its annual meetings with its counterparts in Germany's Parliament, the Bundestag. In 2000, the Congressman hosted the annual meeting in Buffalo and my wife and two daughters, ages 11 and 9, accompanied us. The Congressman made us feel very welcome and to this day our daughters have vivid, positive memories of their experience at that gathering. We are ever...

Sorry for your loss my mom loved him.

I was very fortunate to get to meet Mr. And Mrs. LaFalce when I started coaching his son Marty at Canisius High School. For 3 years, young Marty was an outstanding player and one the most respectful and coachable Crusaders. we made annual trips to Florida with our CHS team. Many parents met us in Tampa, to spend almost two weeks watching our young men practice and play games. John and Pat were consummate and wonderful parents who were always there cheering on Marty and the team. What a...

My dear cousin, So grateful to you for the wonderful opportunity you gave us! My condolences to Pat, Martin & my lovely cousin Lorraine. I live in Fl & am unable to attend the service.

So sorry Pat and Martin for this news. I never personally met John but felt closer to him because of you Pat and Jane and Tim. I know he was a wonderful man, loved his facebook message and I always commented on them. He was a gem of a Congressman that's for sure and I know a terrific husband and father. I lost my husband a year ago and it not easy but they are in a better place with the Lord and now Pope Francis. My sincere condolences. Pat hope to see you at our next Mercy luncheon.

A fine gentleman and the only Democrat I ever voted for. RIP.

The public service of John LaFalce brought years of honor to Western New York. He set a high standard of hard work and good will. Thank you, Mr. LaFalce.

Pat and Martin, We send our condolences on John's passing, Many great memories - through the political campaigns, the great service to the nation, our daughter in his office for a bit, serving on the Merit Selection panel for Magistrate judges, his caring for people and his great commitment to his family - how about that license plate! He was a gentleman who labored in public service for all the right reasons. We are out of town or we would be with you personally but our thoughts afre with...
