My heartfelt sympathies on your loss. The Cooney & Hester family's go back to the mid-60's in Park Ridge. From Our Lady of Ransom through Notre Dame High School. From playing at each other's house to bowling with my Dad's team and all those beer frames. Memories are never forgotten. Keep your memories of Mike close to your heart.

It was with a deep heart ready the passing of Michael this morning. My familys' prayers and thoughts are with the Cooneys at this time.
