Marc Wasem Fights to Honor Bob...


On April 25th, 2008 Marc Wasem of the St Louis Metropolitan Police Department, came out of boxing retirement and entered the fight card one more time to honor Bob. Many officers from Mobile Reserve/HRT along with Bob's family and friends were there to cheer Marc on. The evening of fights at the Viking Hotel in Sunset Hills was promoted by Shamrock Promotions and was titled "Battles for Fame". The evening included boxing, female kick boxing and Mixed Martial Arts.

Later in the evening , Rob Donaker of Shamrock Promotions and Marc Wasem of the St Louis Metropolitan Police Department presented Cindy Cooney, Mike Cooney and D.C. with a check containing a portion of Marc's ticket sales for the Cooney Family Trust Fund which will go to help Sarah and Sean's future needs.

A big Thank You to Marc Wasem for his incredible effort in the ring. Marc took a shot in the ribs during the match and was in a lot of pain for several days. We will never forget your kindness and courage...
