Like his father, Aunt Marion and Cousin Mike, Marty loved spending time…and some money...at Monmouth Park Race Track. But more than anything else, he loved his family and friends, and they loved him. They were not alone. Every single person who met Marty instantly bonded with him and considered him a good friend. Marty was the person everyone wanted to see at gatherings. He was the life of the party. Marty Maloney had no enemies, only good friends.

Marty was pre-deceased by his father James J. Maloney in 1977, mother Helen Widdis Maloney in March 2014, and beloved Aunt Marion Widdis in 1996. Remaining here to celebrate the life of the great Martin C. Maloney are his loving and thankful brothers and sisters: Jim and Ann Maloney, Mary Maloney, Margaret Maloney and Marcie Horowitz, Marion Maloney and Kenny Wilhalme, Patty Maloney and Mark Hopkins, Ted and Elana Maloney, and Tommy and Erin Maloney.
