She was predeceased by her beloved husband, Edward L. Malloy, and her son, Edward J. Malloy. Her legacy continues through her devoted sister, Lucy McFadden, and her loving children: Mary, Patricia, Martin, and Eileen, married to Ken.

A long-time employee in Corporate Services at Citizens Bank, Mary was respected for her professionalism and dedication. Her colleagues remember her as a steadfast and compassionate presence, always willing to lend a hand or offer a kind word. Mary was also an active member of her local church community, contributing her time and talents to keeping the church grounds beautiful. Her love for gardening was evident not only at home, where her garden was a vibrant display of her nurturing spirit, but also in the way she cared for the church's floral arrangements. 

Mary's interests extended beyond her professional and volunteer work. Her garden was her sanctuary, a place where she cultivated not just plants, but also joy and serenity for her family and friends. She was known to spend hours tending to her flowers, a testament to her patience and attention to detail. Mary also took great pride in helping to clean the church, ensuring it was as welcoming and pristine as her own home.Those who knew Mary would describe her as loving, faith-filled, and courageous. She faced life's challenges with a quiet strength and unwavering faith, inspiring those around her to do the same. Her warm smile and generous spirit will be dearly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her.

Malloy, where family and friends will gather to share stories, laughter, and tears, reminiscing about a life lived to the fullest.
