Fort Lauderdale, Florida – Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. June 30 at the United Church of Christ, located at 2501 N.E. 30th Street in Fort Lauderdale, Gay Men’s Chorus invites his friends, family, and the community to a celebration of a life dedicated to Jim Fahy.
A 75-year-old Jim Fahy was tragically killed during a Wilton Manors parade celebrating Pride month.
Donations in his honor can be made to the Fort Lauderdale Gay Men’s Chorus Jim Fahy Memorial Fund, The Pride Center at Equality Park, or Poverello. Friends and family say they’re still in disbelief that Fahy is gone.
Fahy was killed and another man from the chorus, 67-year-old Jerry Vroegh, was seriously injured after being run over by a white pickup truck as they got ready to march in the Wilton Manors Stonewall Pride Parade on Saturday.
A pickup truck driver was 77-year-old Fred Johnson, also a chorus member.
