Ordained: 1945
Father Sinon F. Falvey died in 2005. He served as the pastor of St. Norbert’s Church in Orange, CA, from 1970-1989. During that time, he supervised two other priests later accused of sexual abuse: Father John Kenney and Father John Lenihan. In 2009, a lawsuit was filed alleging that Falvey, too, had perpetrated sexual abuse. Falvey was alleged to have molested an altar server in 1990, after the priest had retired but when he was still living on parish grounds.
