David Regish Obituary
Born Feb. 28, 1962, David attended St. Michaels Catholic School in Northampton, later graduating from Hopkins Academy in Hadley.
He then entered the workforce as a mechanic but was proficient at many different careers throughout his years.
Dave was a talented musician, often times making his own instruments and recording at home. He also was an avid Red Sox fan.
David will be sorely missed by his mother Anita Regish and her partner Jim Palermo of Southampton and his father John Regish, his wife Terry Delaney of Hadley and their son Christopher. He also leaves behind his loving daughter Justine Bednarski, her husband Jameson and his son Jeffery Regish all of Turners Falls. He also leaves a loving sister Karen Regish, her partner Tim Barstow of Hadley, her children Tara Brugger and Gregory Tudryn, a brother Daniel Regish, his wife Amy and their children Angela and Calli and a brother Paul Regish and his wife Tara and their children Kathleen, Allison and Megan, also of Hadley.
Calling hours will be held Friday, May 17, from 4 to 6 p.m. followed by a memorial service at the Ahearn Funeral Home on Bridge Road in Northampton.

As I sifted through all of Dave's stuff, looking for pictures and other such memories to display at his memorial service, I was reminded of something I have been telling people for many years. "Of all the wonderful gifts a person could give, the one thing that can't be stolen or washed away in a flood or burned up in a fire, is time well spent". All of the best times of my life were spent with the people I love, and David was certainly no stranger to that circle. That's why I decided to sing a tune for him at his memorial. Music was always very important to him, and he was the person that made it such an important part of my life. To me, it's a very human way to recognize and realize the passage of time.
To all of you who attended the service, and all who visit this guest book, a heartfelt thank you.
We will all miss you bro.
