Former CVN/ValueVision/ShopNBC host, Bill Fahey, has died. He was found yesterday and the family is awaiting autopsy results. They suspect a heart attack.
His funeral is tentatively set for Friday morning at Pax Christie Church in Eden Prairie MN; however, his son is in Berlin and can't confirm a flight home due to the volcanic ash issues there.
Announcement will likely be in the Minneapolis Star Tribune.
I will pass along details as they become available.
My thoughts and prayers go out to his friends and family.

Awww, that's terrible. He was always such a gentleman on SHOPNBC. I didn't understand why they let him go at the time.
ReplyDeleteMy condolences to the family.:(
I always liked his dry sense of humor. ShopNBC shouldn't have gotten rid of him last year. Hope his son is able to get back quickly and safely.
ReplyDeleteBill was one of a kind! A great friend to have...an awesome coworker to have fun with. His passing is a great loss to those of us that have knew him since the early days. He will definitely be missed!

ReplyDeleteI had always looked forward to Bill hosting the early morning show. He was the perfect host-armed with a great smile, a wealth of information he shared with the viewers, a very kind and charming man who spoke so dearly of his family. I felt terrible for him, his kids - most especially when I found out he was let go. He did not deserve that from ShopNBC. May he rest in peace. God be with him and his family.

I can't believe it. I like watching Bill Fahey on ShopNBC and had the opportunity to speak with him one time when he was presenting a product. I told him that I enjoyed him as a show host and he was such a gentlemen. Sad to hear. I hope it was not the result of ShopNBC letting him go. I will miss him as a tv personality and send condolences to his family.
