Heiney was one of the good ones and one of a kind for sure. I was fortunate to serve with him on the IBEW/CWLP Apprentice Committee for several years. My sincerest condolences to his family. R.I.P. Brother

I am so sad to hear that Mike has passed. I had the absolute pleasure of working with Mike the last 15 years of my career at CWLP. Mike was one of the good guys. He always gave me a fair shake when I came to his job sites. I will always have fond memories of Mike and will never forget the kindness and respect he gave me. Rest in eternal peace Mike.
