Gary Healy, who lived in New York and taught Irish dance and was an immigration lawyer, has died. His friends and family are very sad.
Gary grew up in England, where he learned Irish dance and played Irish music. In 1998, when he was on tour with Riverdance as a dancer, he moved to the United States.
The dancer also worked as a law intern and an assistant at McMahon, Martine, and Gallagher, or MMG, a law firm. Gary opened his own law office and began working as an immigration lawyer and judge. He did this until he died.

Lawyer Gary Healy’s Cause of Death and Death Notice
The news of Gary Healy’s death spread after his close friend Erin Pender LeVine posted a sad photo on her social media.
She said prayers for David Moskowitz-Healy, Gary’s partner, and his family. Gary had to go away too soon.
The Irish dancer has died for reasons nobody knows. He might have been sick, which is why he left this world too soon.
He helped run the Mullane Healy Godley Irish Dance Academy with his wife. It is one of the most successful dance schools in the United States. Many people who were born in the United States have gone there to learn how to dance Irish dance.
Gary, the dance teacher, was a well-known member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association, the American Bar Association, the New York State Bar Association, the LGBT Bar Association of Greater New York, and the Brehon Bar Association of New York.
Healy has been helping actors, dancers, performers, companies, and other people with immigration issues, non-immigrant visas, and student and exchange visitor visas since 2011.
We are very sorry for the family and friends of the person who died, who have had to deal with the loss of such a smart and caring person.
