Father Falke made a profound impact on my life. I was not raised in a Christian home and I learned everything I know about Christianity from this kind and gentle man. Every Friday he gave the simplest, most profound and authentic homilies at Mass at Immaculata High School in Ottawa. I cannot thank him enough for the gift of faith and dedication to service he instilled in me. RIP kind man. Yours was a life that was so very well-lived. Amen. - Posted by: Leigh Ann Bowie (Past student) on: Jan 27, 2026

Father Herman Falke and I met at the church of Joan of Arc in Toronto and I bought one of his sculptures: the three men on the cross. I have fond memories of this amazing artist. He is now with the Lord and at peace. - Posted by: Lydia van pelt (Artist friend) on: May 12, 2020

I moved to 171 Daly in January 2020. Just today I realized, I’m across the street from where he lived in Ottawa. I knocked, but it wasn’t meant to be. I remembered with respect that I should have called first. Loved that man . Feel sad but overjoyed at the memory of his great talent and gift to the world.❤️World 🌎☀️💡🙏 - Posted by: Christine Mayer (Student of art in high school immaculate in Ottawa and again as a mature woman.) on: Feb 17, 2020

Fr. Falke was my parish priest and I was one of his many fan followers aka alter server, back in the 80’s at a small church in Ottawa called St. Monica’s. I still have and loving display each year, a Christmas tree ornament he sculpted for the servers as a gift for each of us one year. He was a very kind and gentle man. I’m so sorry to hear of his passing last year. - Posted by: Tracy (Parishioner) on: Apr 07, 2019
