Edward Patrick Malley

Edward Patrick Malley, 77, of East Brady passed away from cancer at his daughter's home Wednesday.

Edward was the only son of Edward M. and Mary E. (Potez) Malley.

Born Sept. 9, 1941, in Pittsburgh, he graduated from Shaler High School in 1959.

In 1964, he was drafted into the U.S. Army until 1970, in support of the Vietnam War.

On Jan. 31, 1984, he married the former Patricia Ann Hagmaier of Pittsburgh and they moved to East Brady in 1986. They bought the St. Cloud Hotel in 1987, after it suffered a fire. With the help of Pat's children, they got the St. Cloud Hotel up and running and were the owners from 1986 until 2002.

Ed retired from Bracken's Industries in the late 1990s, where he worked as a laborer (paver) and was a member of the Local Union 1058 most of his adult life.

Ed was a member of the Bradys Bend American Legion, where he enjoyed going on a daily basis, socializing with his friends and arguing with anyone he could.

His favorite thing to do was spend time with his granddaughters and great- granddaughter.

Ed is survived by his daughter, Michelle L. Bartoe; his son-in-law, Vince Bartoe of Rimersburg; and his granddaughters, Vanessa (Matt) Norris of Ford City, Victoria (Nick) Ganter of East Brady, and Veronica Bartoe of Rimersburg; and a great-granddaughter, Mya Norris.
