RANGELEY- Michael A. Moroney, 77, of Deer Cliff Run, died on Wednesday, Dec. 23, 2015, at Maine Medical Center, with his loving family by his side. He was born in Danbury, Conn., on Feb. 6, 1938, the son of the late James and Theresa Moroney. He attended local schools, graduating from Hall High School in the class of 1955. Michael continued his education receiving his BA in geology from Trinity College, and a master's degree in management science from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.
On June 8, 1963, Mike married Mary-Ellen Carey in West Hartford, Conn. Mike began his career with Pratt-Whitney where he worked in data processing in the early years of computers. He later began his own business, Computer Assistance Services, which created and built software for the insurance industry. His career in information technology spanned more than 40 years.

He was also the treasurer of the Highland-Overlook Landowners Association for over ten years. He loved the outdoors and was an avid hiker, skier, boater and camper, activities he enjoyed with family and friends.
