Obituary

It is with great sadness we announce the passing of Bruce A. Fagan, Sr. of West Roxbury on April 9, 2025. Bruce departed this earth while surrounded by his loving family. Bruce was born in Keene, NH and was raised in Brighton, MA by his grandmother Maude Wiggins.

He served as an engine specialist in the United States Air Force and was a member of the MBTA Carpenters Union as well as foreman for their upholstery division.

Bruce was an artist in everything he did. He would hug you like you meant the world to him, even if you had just met. He had a great sense of humor and would often be caught laughing at his own jokes. He was selfless and kind and always willing to lend a helping hand.

Bruce leaves behind his devoted wife Dorothy (Cheever) Fagan of West Roxbury. He was a loving father to Heidi (Fagan) White and her husband Stephen of Franklin, MA and Bruce A. Fagan, Jr. of Pittsburgh, PA. Known as Grampy and Gaga to his grandchildren Kyle and Brendan White of Franklin, MA and Ava and Levi Fagan of Pittsburgh, PA. Also survived by many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his grandmother Maude Wiggins and his sister Sheila Rich.

Visiting hours will be held on Saturday, April 26th from 9-10:30am at the William J. Gormley Funeral Home 2055 Centre Street, West Roxbury. Followed by a Mass of Christian burial at St. Theresa of Avila Catholic Church 2078 Centre Street, West Roxbury at 11am.
