DAN FALLON GAWDA extends its condolences to the friends and family of Dan Fallon, who passed away on October 4, 2022. Dan was the founder of McDantim, Inc. in 1991. Dan passed away peacefully at home on October 4th with his muchloved wife, Jane; his brother, Tim; and sister, Michele, at his side. Dan was born on June 26th, 1951, in Coronado, California, to Marjorie (Sheppard) and Mert Fallon. Compassionate, quiet, and gentle even as a child, his open heart connected with people wherever he went. Dan was an accomplished horseman, a passion he shared with Jane; together they had four horses. Dan's adventurous spirit led him to enjoy competitive swimming, scuba diving, traveling, parachuting, flying, teaching adaptive skiing, birdwatching, inventing, and making outrageous puns. In 1991, Dan founded McDantim, Inc., a small manufacturing company. He moved it to Helena shortly afterwards and led it with deep integrity. Dan is survived by his wife, Jane; his brother and sister, nine nieces and nephews (and seventeen great-nieces and nephews) who adored him, and a number of dear friends. continued on next page
