Beloved wife of the late Patrick Maloney; loving mother of Mary (James) D'Amico, Ann (Maloney) Clark, Lt. James Maloney (CPD), Irene (Lt. William) Duffy (CFD), Capt. Thomas Maloney (CFD), BC.

Just found out about your Mom's passing. I am so sorry to hear about this. She such a sweet woman. I spoke to her frequently when she used to call my Mom , Mary O'Toole Hield. She was a great comfort when she was ill and passed.I have thought of her kindness often since that time. She is at peace I know with your Dad and her friends who loved her so much! I'll keep you in my prayers. Terese Hield

My sympathies to all of Anne's family. It was good getting to know her and you when my father, Bob Stordeur, moved to Arden Courts last year. It is such a challenge living with a family member with dementia or Alzheimer's. Anne's smile was so sweet when I saw her while visiting my dad. I hope she is at peace.

I loved your Mom. We were pals from Ceili Dancing. She was very kind to me when I first started dancing and then we become quick friends. We loved dancing together and had lots of laughs. My sincere sympathy for the loss of your sweet Mother. I had met a few of you over the years and my husband is also retired CPD. Again, my condolences.

Sincerely, Barb
