She leaves a son, Capt. Mark P. O'Malley USCG (ret), and his wife, Susan, of Annapolis, MD; two daughters: Maureen A. Lampa and her husband, Steven, of West Yarmouth, and Kathleen M. Adamczyk and her husband, Stephen, of Germantown, MD; seven grandchildren: Katherine Hansberry and her wife, Jenny, Bryan Adamczyk and his wife, Rhonda, John Adamczyk and his wife, Deanna, Elizabeth O'Malley and her husband, Jason Kanno, Conor O'Malley, Sandra Lampa, and Erin Citron; ten great-grandchildren: Miguel, Mateo, Lydia, and Amelia Citron, Alexis Reid, Dylan and Cole LeBouf, Piper Adamczyk and Corey Waldron, Jameson Adamczyk; nieces and nephews and their families. She was predeceased by her husband of 55 years, Peter A. O'Malley, who died in 2004. Two sisters, Marjorie Miller and Betty Green, also predeceased her.

Mabel was born in Scarborough, ME, and raised in Central Massachusetts, daughter of Guy W. and Hazel B. (Green) Green. She was a graduate of Clinton High School, Class of 1947, and a resident of Magnolia Ave., Lancaster, from 1964-2019.

For more than 40 years, Mabel was employed by the former T.F. Burke Oil Co., Lancaster, as a bookkeeper. She had previously been employed by Poulin Construction, Sterling.

A member of St. John's Parish, Clinton, she was active within many church ministries, including Ladies of the Presentation, Women's Club, and the Ancient Order of Hibernians. In addition, Mabel was a long-time volunteer at the Clinton Hospital Guild Gift Shop, and a former member of the Board of the Clinton Senior Center, and a proud member of the Red Hats. She enjoyed shopping almost on a daily basis with her partner in crime, Marie, and baking scads of pumpkin breads for neighbors and friends at the holidays. Most importantly, she loved traveling with her late husband, P.A., whether by planes, trains, automobiles, or buses. Traveling provided more shopping opportunities. Ireland and Bermuda were two of their favorite trips.

And then of course, the grandchildren and great-grandchildren. They were her pride and joy and always provided her with smiles and laughter at every family dinner, party, barbeque, and graduation.

Mabel's funeral will be held on Saturday, October 28, 2023, from the McNally & Watson Funeral Home, 304 Church St., Clinton, with a Mass at 10:00 a.m. in St. John the Evangelist Church, 80 Union St., Clinton. Burial will follow in St. John's Cemetery, Lancaster. Her family and friends will honor and remember her life by gathering for calling hours on Friday, October 27, 2023 from 5:00-7:00 p.m. in the funeral home. In lieu of flowers, the O'Malley family suggests that memorial donations be made to the Alzheimer's Association, 309 Waverley Oaks Rd., Waltham, MA 02452, or to the American Brain Tumor Association, 8550 W.
