The Heenan family in Florida would like to extend our sympathies to you, Cathy, and your family. You do not know us, nor do I know if we are related in any way; however, the obit caught my eye because our son, Marty Heenan, Jr, just lost his wife, Kathy, 38, to breast cancer in April, 2009. They were together for 20 years. Marty Jr and their twins, Mikey and Gaby are struggling every day with their loss.
May the sun shine down upon you and your tears be tears of sweet memory.
The Heenans
