I just heard about Mike's death today as the teacher community was buzzing about the death of John Quinn. I was in double shock and fortunately remembered Pete's website and we must have chatted for half an hour. As a former St Pat's teacher we were honoured to have a quality young man like Mike. I tried to steal him when he came back east for a new Toronto high school, now Saint John Paul II. But like the Wise man from the East, he returned to St Matt's and St Peter's. Condolences to his Mother, Pete, David, Donna, his sister and his children. I was glad to see them all at Fr Tom Cassidy's funeral, my last time seeing all the Heneys.

Just as the sun set on the final days of summer, so did the sun set following the celebration of Mr. Michael Heney's life. He, like the sun, encouraged growth, shared warmth, and enlightened those around him. It was an honour and a privilege to know him, to work with him, and to get to know his children in the classroom and beyond (Thanks to Dad's proud stories!). May Donna, Kate and Mike be comforted at this time, knowing you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Sending all my love to the Heney family. Although I never had the privilege of meeting Mr Heney, I can see his tangible impact in the world through his amazing children, Kate and Mike.

Mr. Heney was one of my favorite teachers. He was a talented football coach, a math whiz, and always encouraged those of us who were not the best at schoolwork. It saddens me to know that St. Peter students will no longer benefit from his talents. God Bless you, Mr. Heney!

Donna, K.K. and Mike Jr. I am so very sorry. Michael was loving, caring, kind, generous and fun to be around. He will be missed beyond words by so many. One couldn't ask for a better father, husband, brother, uncle or friend. My heart aches knowing what you all are going through. I pray that the wonderful memories of growing up, at the cottage and in Florida help ease the sadness in all Heney hearts. He was such a great person.

I will miss you Michael.

I'll miss you Mr. Heney. You brought the best out in everyone around you, and never wore a frown. Thank you for your support in the hockey arenas and in the classrooms. You made me love math again, and always pushed me to succeed, even when I thought I couldn't. We've lost a wonderful man here on earth, but I know you'll be that extra shine in the stars at night. God bless your soul, and may you rest in peace. My condolences to the family.

He was my favourite math teacher whom I was taught by. He never stopped in believing in me and it's because of him that I succeeded in grade 12 Math. I am proud to call him a dear friend and inspirational teacher. My condolences to his family and the staff of St. Peter. When I went to visit him the day before he passed away, he seemed fine like always. It's hard to believe this happened. All I know now is he is in the loving care of God in Heaven. Rest In peace my friend.

My sincerest condolences to the family on the loss of Mike. He will be truly missed. Mike was such an incredible kind soul to all. I loved being in his math classes as an EA with my student. He made math seem easy and understandable. He definitely had the gift of teaching. I'll never forget his all-year-round Christmas tree, math related structures hanging from his classroom ceiling (so many of them!) and classic rock tunes filtering out of his classroom in the mornings and sporadically throughout the day. Mike always had a kind word, an electric smile and a genuine personally. I will miss his rock band t-shirts. I will miss him. He always talked fondly of his children. He has left his legacy in them. Rest in peace, Mr. Heney. Another star shines brightly in the night sky. Shine on Brother.

Coach Heney... your presence will be truly missed. All that rings in my head is that last time I saw you, you said we'd go see the mountains in Alberta. Praying for the family and St. Peter CHS. Thank you for always being positive and showing us your love.

RIP Coach Heney

Thoughts and prayers and love to you Kate, Mike and Donna. We miss you Mike. You were a genuinely kind man and a gifted teacher. It was a blessing to have shared a classroom with you (and your Christmas tree). SPK lost a wonderful friend and colleague, but your legacy will always live on in your children and all of the students you inspired on the football field and in the classroom.

Mike,

You are already so missed and your passing still has us in shock. You were a mentor to so many of us, which is why the passion you lived as a teacher and the unconditional patience you gave to your students is not lost. My deepest condolences to your family, your friends, but also to all the students who will not have witnessed your beautiful mind and joie-de-vivre. It was a blessing to have known you in this journey of life. God Bless.
