Mrs. Maloney graduated from Harrington High School in 1952. Right after her graduation, she went to work for Peoples Bank. For the next 45 years, she worked as a banker until she retired from Wilmington Trust. After her retirement, she enjoyed helping her son Bernie in his floral shop, making deliveries and helping with the bookkeeping. Mrs. Maloney enjoyed taking trips. She loved to go on outings with her family to Lancaster, amusement parks, and anywhere else they desired. She enjoyed going to the Harrington Senior Center and enjoyed visiting many places across the country through the trips they sponsored.
