Mike Maloney

Micheal William Maloney died on Saturday May 2, 2026 at Baptist Memorial

Hospital in Columbus. Born on July 7, 1961 to parents John Maloney, D.C., and

Janet Maloney in Vernon, Alabama, and grew up in Reform, Alabama.

Mike and his wife Midge have lived in Columbus, since 1981. When he was

eighteen, he began working for Mitchell Engineering, hanging steel. Shortly

thereafter, the company was renamed Ceco Building Systems, which is now

Cornerstone. Mike worked for this company for 46 years and worked from home

when he passed. He started out in the plant, which manufactured steel

buildings; he worked his way up to the drafting department, where he became

manager and programmed software for the company. Recently, he worked as

Standards Corporate Manager. His work ethic was impeccable and appreciated

by his peers.

Mike enjoyed a good cookout, fishing, and boating with his son Matt and his

two grandchildren, Lucas and Leia Grace. He was a lifelong fan of University of

Alabama football and loved watching the games with his late brother Danny

Maloney and his brother Chris. He also enjoyed attending company

conventions, where he got to meet the people that worked in other parts of the

United States. These became lifelong friendships.

Mike loved to dance and he met his wife on the dancefloor, and they have

been dancing ever since. Mike loved 1980's music and frequently listened to it

when he had a chance.

For the past fifteen years, he and his wife lived in historic southside

Columbus, just blocks from downtown.

He is survived by his wife, Midge, his son Matt Maloney, and his daughter

Julie Lingle, son-in-law Glenn Lingle, his two grand children Lucas and Leia

Grace Maloney, his daughter-in-law Hope Maloney; his brother, Chris Maloney

and sisters Kathleen and Cheryl.

Mike was known to be a kind and loving person, and he will be greatly

missed. The family would like to thank the many Cornerstone employees who

sent flowers and hearfelt condolences.
