SUFFERN, NY – The Suffern Police Department on social media announced the passing of Lieutenant John Mallon. John was raised in Suffern and fulfilled his lifelong dream of becoming a Suffern Police Officer. He proudly served the Suffern community as a police officer for 40 years, rising through the ranks from Patrolman, Sergeant, Detective Sergeant to Lieutenant.

In addition to the ranks that he held, John was the Suffern PBA President for several terms, proudly providing leadership to his fellow union members. John was always giving back to the Suffern community, whether serving on the board of directors of the Vincent Crotty Memorial Foundation, coaching DARE hockey, volunteering at PBA toy drives and events, to just coaching his children’s sporting teams, John was a selfless giver.

 

 

John is survived by his wife, three children and his grandson. The members of the Suffern Police Department will miss his fighting spirit and amazing sense of humor. Rest in Peace Lieutenant, we’ll take it from here.
