James Malloy Obituary

James J. Malloy

James J. Malloy died on Dec. 27, 2022.

Jim, as he was known to everyone, was a kind man who was well liked by all those who knew him.

He was born to Richard and Lillian Malloy in Philadelphia in 1945.

His brothers, Richard, Anthony, and a sister, Rose Marie, predeceased him.

Jim started his young career as an auto mechanic and owned Malloy's Auto repair. He also was a partner in Malloy's Roofing with his brother for several years, until he and his wife owned and operated Global Health Management Services until his retirement in 2017.

Jim enjoyed the outdoors, hunting and target shooting and traveling. He also enjoyed collecting knives and making his own knife sheaths.

He loved animals.

More than anything, he enjoyed spending time with his wife, children and grandchildren.

He is survived by wife, Gerry, and children, Jim Malloy Jr. and Kelly Alexander; grandchildren, Jacqueline Malloy, Dalton Alexander, Aidan Malloy and Raina Alexander; and many nieces, nephews and friends who adored him. He was a longtime member of SS Peter & Paul Catholic Church, Lehighton.

He will be sadly missed by all those who were a part of his life.
