Evelyn Maloney Obituary

In loving memory of Evelyn Marie Maloney

Evelyn was born on August 4th, 1943 to Floyd Ronald and Irene (Schmidt) Jantz in Syracuse, Kansas. They later moved to Gas, Kansas. Evelyn graduated from Iola High School in 1961. On July 24, 1961, she married Raymond Dale Maloney. Together, they raised three kids; Raymond Dean, Corinna (Heard), and Symanthia (Sprague) Alford. Evelyn and her husband made their home in LaHarpe, Kansas.

Evelyn was a homemaker and loved piecing together and embroidering quilts, doing yard work, and playing with her grandchildren. In the 1970's, she taught and coached girls' softball in LaHarpe for many years. She would say these were the "happiest moments in her life."

She is preceded in death by her parents; brother, Kenny; sister, Linda; and daughter, Corinna.
