Obituary of Margaret E. Malloy

Margaret E. Malloy (nee Harris), age 98 of Pennsauken, passed away at Our Lady of Lourdes Medical Center in Camden on April 14, 2019.

She was born in Altoona, PA on May 2, 1920 to the late James and Elsie (nee Benning) Harris. Mrs. Malloy was a member of the Tenth Street Baptist Church where she accepted Christ and was a member of the usher board. She is the beloved wife of Leroy Malloy for 76 years; devoted mother of Myrna Ellis, Leroy Malloy Jr. (Joanne), Andrea (Joseph) DeLecce and Shari (Kevin Sr.) Blackshear; loving grandmother of Dawn Ellis, William Ellis, Tammy Malloy, Danielle Battle, Jonathan Malloy, Joseph (Delilah) DeLecce III, Nikole (Maireni) Pimentel, Kevin (Shasharaa) Blackshear Jr., Shawn (Kendra) Blackshear, Tamira Nichols and La'Kier Johnson; loving great grandmother of 16 and great-great grandmother of 2; caring Godmother of Stephanie Whaley. Also survived by a host of nieces, nephews, caregivers, family and friends. She is predeceased by her parents and 4 siblings.

Prior to her retirement, Mrs. Malloy was employed as a reading specialist for the Camden City Board of Education for many years. She was a wonderful cook, especially around the holidays when she baked her sweet potato pies. She loved going to the shore and walking the boardwalk. Mrs. Malloy played a great game of solitaire and she was an avid crossword puzzle solver and word search person.

We were so blessed to have her as our mother and the wife of our father. Her entire life was based around the strong love she had for her family. Everyone who came in contact with her over her lifetime said that she was one of the kindest, caring and loving people that they were privileged to know.
