Offer Condolences or MemoryLACONA (CONEY) HEATHER CUNNINGHAM
Unexpectedly on September 26, 2023, Coney passed away at the age of 79 surrounded by family and awash with love. Her death is an enormous loss to all who knew her.
Coney is survived by her loving husband of 57 years, Ted; children, Dennis (Randi), Ainsley, and Neil (Amanda). She will be dearly missed by her grandchildren, Tekla, Ellis, Will and Norah. Also mourning her loss are her dear sisters, Maroah (Ray) and Lorise (Randy); brother Wayne (Maureen); and sisters-in-law, Carole, Heather, and Susie (Bob). Coney was a constant source of courage, solace, friendship, and care to them all. She was predeceased by her father Garnet; mother Anne; father-in-law Raymond; mother-in-law Marjorie; siblings, Beatrice, Joe, and Wendy; brother-in-law Harry; and nephews, Kevin and Jarrett.
Coney loved her family and friends. She gave unconditionally the gifts of her time, her trust, her ear, her loyalty, her baking, and her voice. She encouraged us to be kind and generous, to foster goodness in ourselves and others, to embrace adventure and joy, to work hard with honest effort, and to leave your community better than it was when you arrived.
A memorial service for Coney is scheduled for 1:00 p.m. Wednesday, October 11, 2023, at St. Mary Magdalene Anglican Church, 3 St. Vital Road. A reception will follow.
In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation in Coney’s name to Heartwood Healing Centre, Toba Centre, Forward House or a charity of your choice.

We were so lucky to have had Coney and Ted as neighbours for 34 years. Coney would help out in a heartbeat no matter the task. She cared for everyone on the street as though they were a part of her family. Together, she and Ted tended to the beautiful park and green space juxtaposed to our street, keeping it clean and enjoyable year round. We were also fortunate enough to be neighbours at the lake at Ainsley’s cottage, where she was always busy with yard work, refinishing furniture, painting - the list goes on. She even taught our eager 18-month-old granddaughter how to use sandpaper. She will be greatly missed by all her knew her. Our heartfelt sympathies are extended to her family. - Posted by: Dale Harrington (Neighbour) on: Oct 07, 2023
