Barbara Jean "Jeanie" Malloy

Age 70, of Castle Shannon, formerly of Millvale, passed away peacefully and surrounded by love on November 17, 2024 after a brief illness with Creutzfeld-Jakob disease.

Jeanie was born on May 3, 1954 to the late Jacob and Ruth Habel in Shaler Twp., Pennsylvania and is also preceded in death by her brother Jack Habel. 

Jeanie is survived by her loving and dedicated husband of seven years Chuck Malloy, her wonderful sons Christian Schwemm (Carrie), and Kurt Schwemm (Megan), and the absolute loves of her life, her grandchildren Braden and Sydney Schwemm.

She is also survived by her sister and best friend on earth who shared every step of the way through life with her, Ruth Divis (Larry); incredible aunt of Kristen Nickolas and Jack Davis and their families; loving daughter-in-law of Anna Marie Malloy; sister-in-law of Kathy Turton (Michael), Coleen Theilman (Bruce), Meghan Data (John), Scott Malloy, and many special nieces and nephews; loving and faithful cousin of Sherry Mooney and her family; close cousins Debbie Clark and Linda King; and life-long and loving friend Donna Davis, dear friend Cindy Davis; along with many others who will forever hold Jeanie in their hearts, especially her faithful dog Hector.

Jeanie will be remembered not just for her extreme bravery, grace and dignity during her last months, but also for the beautiful way she lived her life, always leading with kindness and humor. The people she loved were the most important thing to her, and she acted accordingly, always making sure everyone felt like “a someone”. Her huge laugh almost was as big as her huge heart…almost.

Jeanie will be missed every minute of every day. Her family though, takes comfort in something she once said: “We are a small family, but we are a STRONG family.” They will make her proud by living every day as she did: showing up for each other always and loving each other unconditionally.

 Celebrate Jeanie’s life with her family on Sunday, November 24th from 4-7 PM at Perman Funeral Home, 923 Saxonburg Blvd. and a Funeral Mass with be held at Holy Spirit Church in Millvale, PA on Monday, November 25th at 10:30 AM.
