REARDON MULROY Obituary
Formerly of Beaver Falls
Reardon (Rick) Anthony Mulroy Sr. of Ford City, Pa., passed away peacefully Monday, November 30, 2020, with his loving wife, Delores, at his side.
He was born on June 20, 1949, in Beaver Falls, Pa., the son of Reardon D. and Marie J. (Algier) Mulroy.
He was the beloved husband of Delores (Yanoff) Mulroy since 1991.
Rick was a generous man. He has helped his sons, daughters and friends in countless ways. He loved working on his cars and his children will always remember receiving their first car from him. He was a 1973 graduate of Youngstown State University with a Bachelor's Degree in Business.
Rick retired from the Armstrong School District (ASD) in 2008. He served in a variety of roles including Director of Transportation and Maintenance. During his tenure with the ASD he spent many pre-dawn hours awake determining if the winter roads were passable for school buses. Most recently, Rick served on the Board of School Directors until resigning earlier this year.
Nothing meant more to Rick than his family, friends and his garage. Those that knew him best will attest to this. Rick enjoyed tinkering with is vintage cars until the very end.
Rick was preceded in death by his son, Reardon (Ricky) Mulroy Jr.; his mother, Marie J (Algier) Mulroy; his father, Reardon D Mulroy and his brothers, Edward and Jonathan Mulroy.
He is survived by his loving wife, Delores; his daughters, Tobbie Mulroy-Krantz and Molly (Walt) Rainey; his son, Patrick (Karlie) Mulroy; his grandchildren, Emma, Tatum, Elliot and Luke Krantz and Raenaeziah, Markaylah and Braxlynn Rainey; sisters, Nancy Myers and Maureen Larkin, and many nieces, nephews, and friends.

Dear Dee, Toby, Patrick, and Molly and families, Jane and I are so sorry to Learn of Rick’s untimely passing. As your husband, father, and grandfather I know that that your loss is tremendous and he will be greatly missed by you all as well as all his friends and professional colleagues. Rick was a good guy and a great friend to me. I fondly remember all the years that we worked together at ASD, and remember all the many times that he helped me when I was principal at DHS, KHS, and ACHS. Rick and I, along with Kevin and other Principals, enjoyed getting together for meetings, lunches, after board meeting wings and beers, and times playing golf together. He and I both had a love for old cars and enjoyed comparing knowledge of those we had and ones we wanted. He was a good friend who treated me special and I will greatly miss him. Even though I had not seen him recently, it was always good to know he was around and look forward to seeing him. I know these next months are going to be so difficult for you all, and although you will never truly get over his loss, I would hope that your fond memories of Rick, and all your times together will be of some solace to you. Jane and I will keep you in our thoughts and prayers. Sincerely, John and Jane Shaner.
PS I am sorry that we were unable to be with you personally at the funeral home and funeral mass. This virus has really limited our movement.
