Eddie Cooney passes away

Following is the Enquirer’s obituary for Norwoodian Eddie Cooney, who passed away after an extended illness. Eddie was a fixture for many years at both City Council and NSC Board of Education meetings. One of us thought of him as the official greeter, always handing out the agendas and engaging in a little conversation. Meetings just won’t be the same.
