With A Heavy Heart…

A man that was a mentor to me as a child in Boy Scouts, Mr. George J. Maloney died last Wednesday. Mr. Maloney was the subject of a previous story that can be read here. I believe that along with my parents and others, he was a major influence in shaping the man that I am today.

Mr. Maloney


George J. Maloney, 71, of Nashua died Wednesday, Dec. 6, 2006, at his home surrounded by his loving family.

Mr. Maloney was born Feb. 10, 1935, in Boston, son of the late George and Florence (Seaverns) Maloney. He moved to Nashua in 1952.

He was the husband of Jacqueline (Frank) Maloney of Nashua. The couple shared 49 years of marriage.

Mr. Maloney worked as a supervisor for Producers Dairy for more than 20 years and also worked at LePage’s Bakery as a regional sales manager for 10 years. Most recently, he worked at Nashua Foreign Auto, where he was an office manager for 10 years.

He was an avid outdoorsman who loved camping and was active in Boy Scouts for four decades as well as an avid Red Sox, Patriots and Bruins fan.

He will be remembered for being a loving grandfather, being active with his grandchildren and for being a hard worker, a wonderful husband and a great family man who will be missed by many.
