Margaret Fallon passed away peacefully on September 20 at the age of 88. The wife of the late Timothy A. Fallon, Jr., she is survived by her son Robert, daughter Hilarie Fallon Moore, and beloved grandchildren Devin and Catlin Moore.
Born in Upper Darby,(sic) PA, Peggy graduated Brown University in 1950 and married classmate Tim that fall and became a full-time mom in Norwalk, CT. When her kids were old enough, she went into teaching high school English. Her English as a second language classes enriched immigrant vocabularies beyond the curse words their classmates gleefully imparted. Later, as an executive assistant in the private sector, she rewrote executive correspondence to make it more readable.
Peggy and Tim retired to Rhode Island in the mid-1980s to live where they'd met and fallen in love. They travelled Europe extensively, even visiting ESL students she'd taught who'd returned home. An active volunteer, she served many years at the South County Hospital coffee shop making the area's premier cabinet. She was a literacy volunteer, and ushered at Trinity Rep. A card shark, Peggy was an avid bridge enthusiast, often pocketing pots valued in the tens of cents. A devoted Red Sox and Patriots fan (with an enormous crush on Tom Brady), she'd don her team jersey and coach games with vigor.
Caring and generous with her time and her emotions, she inspired all with her disposition and positive nature. We were blessed with her presence, and while diminished by her absence, we carry on with her in our hearts.
She'll be joining Tim at the Rhode Island Veterans Memorial Cemetery in Exeter. Donations in her memory to South County Hospital are greatly appreciated.
