David O'Hare Obituary
David was born in New Haven on April 2, 1959, and was the son of John O'Hare and the late Phyllis Franco O'Hare. He was a self-employed general contractor. David was an avid boater, loved riding his Harley Davidson motorcycle, and was truly a man with hands of gold, he could fix anything and was the type of person that could figure out anything when he put his mind to it.
He was the father of Jackie and Jennifer O'Hare; step-father of Courtney, Shelby, and Owen Silk; brother of Joan (Tom) Roche and Kevin (Judy) O'Hare. He was also survived by his former wife, Diane D'Adamo.
Family and friends were invited to St. Therese Church, 555 Middletown Ave., North Haven on Monday, July 3, to attend a Mass of Christian burial and were also invited to attend the committal service in Centerville Cemetery on Washington Avenue, Hamden. The North Haven Funeral Home, 36 Washington Ave., has been entrusted with the arrangements.
