(December 23, 1941 – January 3, 2022)

Beloved husband, father, and brother Walter Maloney, 80, passed peacefully on January 3rd, 2022.

Walter worked as President and Vice-President of companies such as A.P.E. and Sure Start, managing plants in Costa Rica and Guadalajara. He retired in

2007, but his restless spirit brought him back to the workforce. He worked as General Manager of Shelter Valet Parking for several years after and finally retired again in 2011.

Walter enjoyed traveling, karate, reading, and bowling. He loved going to the beach and being by the water. Walter was a Mason for over 40 years and participated as much as he was able to. He was a loving and caring person who people sought out for advice. After being diagnosed with cancer in 1998 and given three months to live, he made it his life mission to not only beat cancer, but to understand it as well, helping hospitals, such as M.D. Anderson with cancer research.
