Thomas Michael Heneghan, 67, was a lifelong resident of the Chicago area. He completed his education at Morton West High School and Northern Illinois University.

Tom was a dedicated father to his two sons, Jack and Dan. He cherished spending time with his family and enjoyed sharing laughter and stories.

Known for his love for family, he was always just a phone call away for his nieces and nephews. Tom had a wonderful sense of humor and a passion for reading.

He is survived by his sons and his former wife, Cindy nee Steben: his siblings, Kathy (Tom) Ross, Julie (Sean) Lally, Rita (Mattie) Lally, Theresa (Mike) Maloney and the late Mary Jo (the late Michael) Lally; fond uncle of many beloved nieces and nephews. Tom was preceded in death by his parents, Timothy and Kathleen nee Sheridan Heneghan. The services will be private.
