I have many fond memories of Uncle John over the years. Many years ago we were in Racine at Uncle Bills house replacing the roof. Uncle John and my father, Pat, were also there. We had a great time and went to the Corner House Restaurant that evening. It was great to see and hear the three brothers working together.

The Bible Refers to the name John as the beloved, And the John Maloney I remembered was just that. A very funny,warm and kind man with a very big heart. My grandmother sponsered four nephews and a niece from Co Mayo Ireland in the late 40's and early 50's. John was one of the five. She gave them a roof over their head. for they lived with us at the old homestead 2003 St Clair in Racine Wis.When John his brothers and sister came from Ireland and lived with us Our home was filled with Laughter,shnanagins. And music and singing to the dawns early light. I remember John warming up his bagpipes getting ready to parade down Washington ave with his brother and sister. Oh what fun. I cherrish all the fond memeroies of cousin John. So Dear John May God Speed and say Hello to Aunt Deila,Uncle Jack Marie and my mom Irene. and all your brothers and family
