On Sunday, July 30, 2017, at the age of 29, John Henry Fahy passed away and entered into the Eternal presence.
Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on December 29, 1987, John was brought into a struggling family with five siblings. His father passed away when he was only four years old, throwing his family into turmoil and desperate conditions. John grew up in very humble conditions in Philadelphia. He loved Rap Music and collecting “J’s”. Being from Philadelphia, John could not help but be a die-hard Eagles fan. He was a foody, loving to eat and try new things. He liked to play and collect video games. He also had a passion for collecting small boxes and antiques. John was shy and an extremely unique person. His difficult childhood caused him to struggle with relating to others but allowed him to show unparalleled strength, understanding and kindness. His inner fire motivated and inspired those around him. People couldn’t help but fall in love with him and he loved everybody.
John was a Managing Partner with Kerbey Lane Café UT. The café held a special place in his heart as it was there he started work as a server, worked his way up to Managing Partner and as the place where he met the love of his life, Rose Marie Roddy in the Summer of 2012. He married his soul mate within six months on January 23, 2013. Soon after they were pregnant and had their first child, soon after they had their second child, Mary Marlene Fahy whom will be two in October. John’s wife and children became everything to him. He cherished their unconditional love. Following his marriage to Rosie, John took her family on as his own. He was kind and generous and would do everything he could for all of them.
Johns life was richly blessed by his loving wife of five years, Rose Marie Fahy and his children John Henry and Mary Marlene. His blessings also included his siblings: Anthony, William, Alyssa, Robert and Vernonia, his mother Amber Fahy and his loving in-laws; Marlene and John Roddy. He also leaves behind an extended family of aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.
