With heavy hearts and profound sadness, we announce the passing of Dawn Marie Fahey (Exarhos), who passed away on November 10, 2026, at the age of 59, following a courageous battle with ovarian cancer.

Dawn was the beloved wife of Michael Fahey; devoted mother of Michael, Matthew, and Ryan; cherished daughter of the late Angelo and Evelyn Exarhos; loving sister of Diana Manos, Chris Terracciano, and the late John Terracciano; and adored aunt of Giovanni Terracciano, Nicole Fahey, Michael Fahey, and Alenna Manos.

Dawn was the heart and soul of her family, a woman whose strength, love, and larger-than-life presence left a lasting impression on everyone she met. She was fiercely devoted to those she loved, always offering a voice of reason, a helping hand, and unwavering support. Her family was her greatest joy, and she treasured every moment spent surrounded by those closest to her.

Throughout her battle with ovarian cancer, Dawn displayed remarkable courage, determination, and resilience. A true fighter in every sense of the word, she became a voice for others, inspiring those around her with her strength and unwavering spirit.

Dawn found happiness in life’s everyday moments, whether it was cooking for her family, watching her favorite reality television shows, or spending time at Life Time with her dear friends. She had a special way of bringing people together and making everyone around her feel loved.

Dawn’s 59 years were far too few, but the love she gave and the memories she created will last a lifetime. She will forever be remembered as the glue that held her family together, a beautiful soul whose love was as fierce as her spirit.

Though she will be deeply missed, her legacy of strength, compassion, and unconditional love will live on through all those fortunate enough to have known her.
