Maloney, Ann M. (Patterson) of Braintree, passed away surrounded by her loving family at South Shore Hospital on June 18, 2026.

Ann was a loving, kind, and funny woman whose life was centered on family, friendship, and the simple joys of everyday living. Ann was deeply devoted to the people she loved most. She was all about family, and nothing brought her greater happiness than spending time with her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. She adored her grand kids and great-grand kids and treasured every moment she had with them. Her quiet nature was often paired with a wonderful sense of humor, and those who knew her best appreciated the warmth and laughter she brought into their lives. She had a gentle presence that made others feel welcome, and her love for her family was evident in everything she did.

Ann was married for 61 years to the late Thomas A. Maloney, a testament to a lifelong partnership built on love, commitment, and shared memories. Throughout her life, she remained devoted to the home and family she helped build. She lived in Jamaica Plain before making Braintree her home for about five decades, where she became a familiar and cherished part of the community. Her life in Braintree reflected the steady, caring spirit that defined her, and she formed lasting connections with those around her. In her free time, Ann enjoyed sitting on the porch and people watching and enjoying her proximity to the beach. She was also proud to be part of the Red Hat Society and the Braintree Women’s Club, where she enjoyed companionship, conversation, and the fellowship of other women. Ann also worked for about 50 years, beginning her career at Jordan Marsh and later continuing at Macy’s. Her long years of employment reflected her strong work ethic, reliability, and dedication.

Ann will be remembered most for the love she gave so freely, the kindness she showed to others, and the humor that brightened the lives of those around her. She lived a life marked by devotion, steadiness, and grace. Her family and friends will forever hold close the memories of her loving heart, her quiet wit, and the many ways she made life better simply by being part of it. The family of Ann Maloney wants to extend their sincerer gratitude to the kind workers at Southwood Nursing Home in Norwell who took such great care during her time there.
