About the Mission:

We have been requested by the family of Timothy M. Maloney to participate in his military honors funeral services.  Timothy, 99, passed on October 2, 2022.

Born on Christmas Eve in 1922, Tim proudly grew up in South Troy where he made lifelong friends who often proclaimed, “South Troy against the world.” He graduated from LaSalle Institute (class of ’41) and attended Siena College prior to entering the Navy on February 5, 1943.  He received basic training at Sampson Naval Training Station, Technical School training at Memphis, Tennessee and Hollywood, Florida, and was assigned to US Naval Air Station in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where he served with a torpedo squadron - TBF’S - during WWII..  He served 2 years, 10 months and 2 days and was honorably discharged during December of 1945.  For his service, he was awarded an Honorable Service Button, Honorable Discharge Emblem and Honorable Discharge Button.

After being discharged, Tim attended R.P.I. and graduated with a mechanical engineering degree with the class of 1950. Tim had a long career with the General Electric Company that spanned several decades. He received many awards and recognition for his engineering and managerial achievements. Tim continued working as a licensed NYS Professional Engineer and consulted for many corporate clients after retiring.  He was a member of the Colonie Elks, the American Legion, Knights of Columbus, and the Edison Club in Rexford, NY where he enjoyed playing golf in the leagues. After retiring, Tim and Margaret spent their winter months at St. Augustine Beach in Florida.
