I will forever remember the joy of working with Dan, as a firebox attendant, to a loader, and a lighter. The memories made during those shows was beyond anything I could have dreamed. He and is family will forever be as my family. He shall be remembered with every single shell I send into the sky. Rest in peace, my friend. ~Kevins 1-9
To the Cooney Family thank you for sharing Dan Cooney who I called my friend with us. My prayers are with you all.
Veta Lowery Reese
Lifelong Resident of River Rouge
His pen is mighty, his wit sublime.
His love of family, firm and kind.
The Rouge he champions to the end
No town has a finer friend.
And then there in his enchanted eyes
The laughs, the glare, something so wise.
So, light a squib and launch one fast
Cause, Dan, you know, we had a Blast.
