"ROBERT EMMET COONEY, age 96, beloved husband of the late Elizabeth (nee Curby) for over 70 years; father of the late Robert.
In addition to his family and his faith, his overriding devotion was to the Iron Workers International Union and Local 17, to which he belonged all his adult life.
The high point of his career was his service as Vice President of the International for 25 years.
At the time of his death he had the 3rd oldest active "book" in the International.
Along the way he was a great friend to those he came to love, including all the many nephews and nieces from his wife Betty's side of the family and all his neighbors for many years in Cleveland's West Park neighborhood.
In the last years of his life he was a resident at Brookdale Senior Living in Medina, and the family extends their gratitude for all the care and kindness he received from their staff.
All will miss him, but none more than his devoted friend, Robert O'Malley, who never once picked up the check. Though O'Malley says it was the other way around.

Interment Holy Cross Cemetery. riends may call at CHAMBERS FUNERAL HOME of CLEVELAND, 4420 ROCKY RIVER DR., AT PURITAS, SUNDAY 1-4 P.M."
