"Very sorry to hear of Vickie's passing. We grew up sitting in the fifth pew from the back at St. Michael's with the Malloy's in the seventh pew - we knew your backsides quite well. I think the Malloy's were better behaved. Your mother always took a moment to give us one of her warm smiles and a sweet, "hello" even though she had her own big family. "

"To all the Malloy family: So sorry to hear of the passing of your mother. Certainly have wonderful memories of both Vicki and Jimmy from the years of going to church in Holbrook at St. Michaels. When I think of Vicki, her laugh rings out in my head, as she was a \"good feeler\" and expressed that in both her smile and laugh. She was a good neighbor and so willing to help when called upon. God bless her and your family. Will be keeping all of you in my thoughts on Friday. Dean and Paula Spratt "
