DAVID FAHY Obituary
Dave was born in Boston, MA and grew up in Cohasset with his parents and older brother, Kieran Francis Fahy, older sister, Deirdre Fahy Lane, and younger brother, Brendan Joseph Fahy. He attended Cohasset High School and then went on to graduate from Boston College. He married his loving wife, Holly, in Duxbury on May 4, 1991 and they spent many happy years in Kingston and Duxbury.
Dave had an incredible love for life and for all of his family. He loved the ocean and spent many days on the waters in Duxbury with his family. He was an avid U2 fan attending many concerts over the years. Dave was always the first to offer help and was always there when needed. He enjoyed life; and managed to keep the family always laughing. He had a good heart and a strong moral compass. He will be dearly missed.
Dave was an active family member with the Fahy and Moffatt families. He will be missed by his father- and mother-in-law, Robert and Nancy Moffatt as well as his brother- and sister-in-laws, Peter and Anna Moffatt, Robert and Shira Moffatt, Suzanne and Robert Occhialini; Carol Fahy, Christopher Lane, and Genevieve Cremaldi Fahy.
Dave was the center of the family and is survived by his loving nieces and nephews; Kristin and Jeff Meyer, Meghan Lane, Briana and Keith Tompkins, Kayla Fahy, Genevieve Lane, Rose Fahy, Iris Fahy, Callum Moffatt, Bennett Occhialini, Bode Moffatt, and Reed Occhialini.

To all the members of the Fahy clan, our sincere condolences. Our family lived next door to your family many years ago and remained friendly when we moved to Scituate. We are sorry for your loss.
I remember trading baseball cards with David and Kieran on our front lawn and playing basketball with David in the summer when Coach Ed Minelli would open the gymnasium.
