Very sad to hear of Mr. Fahey's passing. He was a kind and positive influence on all who knew him. I never heard an unkind word from him and feel lucky to have known him. Always had something nice to say to every kid as they tramped out of the locker room.

I was shocked to hear of your Dad's passing. It was always a pleasure to attend a high school hockey game in Arlington or Burlington and sit with your Dad.He was always sitting up high in the stands with that award wining smile.He made me laugh even if our team was down by several goals. He was a great man and will be sorely missed by all.
