Edward Maloney Obituary
People at his memorial Mass last week kept using the same words over and over about Teddy Maloney. Loyal. Modest. Magic with kids. A true friend.
At 32, Mr. Maloney was the kind of young husband who called his wife, Brinley, three or four times a day, especially since she was seven months pregnant with their second child - another girl, they had learned. He had already made his morning call home to Darien, Conn., at 8:40 that Tuesday from the TradeSpark offices of Cantor Fitzgerald on the 104th floor, just minutes before the attack.
"I'm not sure he liked his work that much," his mother, Sally Maloney, recalled. "If he had had his way, he would have opened a string of carwashes. He always wanted to be in control of his own business."
And to be closer to home and his extended family, the girls' hockey and lacrosse teams he coached. He took the job in the city only because Cantor Fitzgerald had promised a transfer to the Darien office in February, just after the baby's arrival. Her name will be Teddy Bray Maloney.

My husband Peter, my daughter Jasmine and myself , visited Ground Zero memorial in August this year 2018. I stood looking at all the names surrounding the waterfall and I wanted to pick one name that I would always remember. My dad's name was Edward Francis and my brother also has the same name so Edward Francis Maloney had a significant meaning to me. My dad was also always known as Teddy. We are so sad for your loss and wanted you to know that we will always remember your Edward especially on 9/11. Sylvia (Francis) Martin. Hutton, Essex, England.

Hi, my name is Emma. My history teacher told me to do an assignment that involved picking a American that died in 9/11. I wasn't real happy about it at first and then I realized that these people and there families went through more than I ever will. I am happy to say I picked EDWARD FRANCIS "TEDDY" MALONEY III. Thank you Teddy for being a leader for me.

I was working in NYC on that fateful day. Approximately 2 weeks after September 11th, where I was working at JP Morgan on Park Ave., I found a memorial card with Teddy's picture on it in the foyer.
I never met Teddy but as a life-long New Yorker, who lost so many on that day, I added Teddy to my daily prayers and memories.
After September 11th I joined the United Nations and have been serving, in the name of peace, for the past 12 years.
Today, as on every September 11th I think about Teddy and say prayers for his family and friends. I am so pleased to read that he had a lovely wife and now two precious daughters.
I am working for the UN in theNetherlands at the moment and took Teddy's card out of my wallet today to remember him.
Sending loving thoughts and prayers your way. Although I never me Teddy he is very special to me.
If you ever wish to contact me my name is: Ruth-Anne Young. My e-mail is: [email protected]

My thoughts are with the entire Maloney family on this 10 year anniversary. I am so sorry for your loss! Teddy and I went to college together, he was one of the warmest people I have ever known. He loved his family and friends and we are all lucky to have had Teddy in our lives and memories. Let the fond memories of Teddy get us through the hard times and his children's laughter bring him back to our hearts.

Dear Maloney Family,
one week after 911 there was a memorial held for the victims here in key largo. We were given a glow stick with a name which mine was Edward Francis Maloney "Teddy". We did not know him but every year we remember him by hanging his name (glow stick) on our Xmas tree . On this 10th anniversary our hearts go out to you but he will always be remembered in our home.

Dear Friends and Family of TEDDY MALONEY, recently on my trip to new york i visited the WTC Museum and bought a silver bangle from the gift shop.It was in a satin bag so nobody could see who's name is on which one.

To the Maloney Family,
This past weekend I got together with three of my good friends from NEC Amy Wagstaff, Maura Meehan and Rebecca St. Germain. We went through some of our college photo albums and saw some great pictures of Teddy, smiling of course! We continue to have fond memories of him and we will never forget. We hope you are all doing well.

I never had the opportunity to meet Teddy, but many wonderful words by his friends and loved ones draw a pretty good picture about the kind of man he was. My heart goes out to his family and friends on this day, especially Brinley, who I had the great pleasure of meeting years ago while she was attending school in Virginia. I'm not a very religous man, but I have and will continue to pray for you, your children and both of your families.

My sympathy is with the Maloney Family. I went to EH with Teddy. Today I had my class that I teach read the Obituraries of the Victims and one of my Students read Teddy's. All I could rememberwas playing soccer with him and I remember how at home he was on the fields.

I'll never forget the day I learned Teddy had been among the many who perished on that dark day. It was my first day back to work after Sep. 11th. The exchange had been closed for several weeks. A co-woker showed me the paper with Teddy on the cover. That was October 1, 2001. I had the pleasure of working with Teddy for a year or so on the American Stock Exchange. There was only a few of us in the booth, so we we're all close. Teddy always had me laughing, making fun of my Staten Island accent. We had alot of laughs, I was sad when he left the company. Most people say they will keep in touch...but unfortunatley we never did.
I would like to give my deepest condolences to the Maloney family and to Brinley, I think of you and, your girls often.
May god bless you and help you get through your every day.

Teddy Maloney was one of my close childhood friends. We went to elementary school together at the Midland School in Rye, NY. I remember walking home from school with him in the 1970's. Walking along Forest Avenue with Teddy, Billy August and myself. He used to come to my birthday parties and I would go to his. We used to skate together at Playland. I remember Teddy as being on the quiet side and was always a really nice kid. We lost touch by the time we were teenagers because he went to private school. I want to extend my deepest condolences to his wife and family. I will always remember his kindness and his soft smile.

Brinley:
I used to live in NYC a couple of years ago. I never knew your husband. I just opened the NY Times anniversary section and picked a face. There were so many to look at, it took my breath away. I was looking for a young man - anyone who might have a wife in pain and Teddy's smiling eyes jumped out at me. I have never lost anyone close to me - I have no wisdom that might come from experience. I just got married a few weeks ago and I can only imagine your grief. There was a kind of love & protection I saw in the faces of complete strangers that day. It let me know that we are united as people. I'm guessing you may feel alone - but there are many out there praying for you. I am a very strong woman and I have love to spare so I'm sending you some of it. I hope you find peace.

Brinley,
It has been years but not a time goes by that when I think of you,that I do not say a prayer for you and your girls. I also have 2 girls. One in October '01 also. I hate that we didn't keep in touch through the years- It is now (and the past year) that I wish that I could have been there for you in your time of sorrow or maybe help in some way. I KNOW you are an awesome mom. Your children are so lucky to have you. I mean that. Know that when you hold them,you hold your husband, when you smile, you're smiling at him. I believe that he will live forever in them and that you will someday be with him again- forever this time. Please know that you are always in my prayers no matter how many years have gone by. Let me know if there's anything that I can do.
Love, April

I am the mother of Anthony Arcone, who often talked about this great fellow,Teddy,with whom he had such fun during business outings and meetings. Tonite at a memorial service in Meriden,it was announced that a stone wall had been erected by the students at Kimball Union Academy in Meriden. Each stone has the name of ten victims of the terrorist attacks etched into the stone. Teddy's name is there. Each student had to learn about the victims assigned to them. During our service of rememberance tonite, 9/11/02, we prayed for Teddy, for his family, and for world peace.

While I never met Teddy (even though he was my second cousin), my heart aches for Brinley and his children. Everything I've read and heard about him sounds like he was a true O'Neal! Today is September 11, 2002. The Tiptons will pray for Teddy's soul and his beautiful family.

Dear Maloney Family, I only heard of Teddy's passing this week. I knew several victims of September 11th very well and was only a few blocks away myself when the attack happened.I thought I had heard the last of the familiar names of the victims until I heard yet another this week. I didn't know Teddy very well but he and I played goal together in a couple of the Wall Street Charity Fund hockey games a few years back. He was a good guy,a little quiet around the team, and a helluva goalie.At this years' annual game in March, when I am out on the ice I will wear his initials on my mask and dedicate the game to him. May God truly bless you and give you strength.

We see your sorrow-
and our hearts cry....
We can not erase your pain
but you do not have to face the anguish alone-for we-
-the American people-
are beside you.
We so desperately want to have the touch that brings you comfort,
the strength that gives you courage,
and the words to lighten your spirits.
And when we are left speechless
may the silence of our nation weave love into your hearts
to ease your sorrow.
May you find healing through our nation's strength as we-
-the American people-
face this difficult time together. Our hearts are with you. Teresa Jahn

I pray for all the Maloney's every night. And was so excited to hear the wonderful news about the birth of Baby Teddy. I hear she is perfect! But of course!! I finally feel comfortable admitting to Brinley, when I was very young I had a crush on Teddy. He was always so very nice and such great fun to be around. He completely ignored my flirting, but was considerate and still nice to me:) hee hee
I am sad to share so personally in this sorrow, but I am glad Teddy and Ward have each other.
Love, Katie
