Gussie (Dean) Maloy Cready Ellison McCoy

           Gussie (Dean) Maloy Creasy Ellison McCoy          

Born September 3, 1941 in Mitchell County, Georgia, the first child of George W. Maloy and Leola (nee Reese) Maloy. She was married thrice, mother of two daughters. A person of great faith who loved God and at a young age, began her love of travel with the St. Luke Presbyterian Church. She had life roles as nurse, clerical supervisor, dispatch clerk, and smoking cessation counselor. She was active in workplace social groups such as a member of the National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC) through a 25+ year employment with Dodge-McGraw Hill. The combination of travel, music and patriotism led to membership in The Veterans Association Medical Musical Group (VAMMG) where she honored our soldiers and veterans all over the world. No matter the relationship, she made your life better. She celebrated three retirements. She loved working, always providing efficient and loving service. When she could ‘no longer carry her weight,’ she retired for the last time in 2013 from MetroHealth (Metro General) Hospital, the place that she started in the workforce 60 years ago.

She departed this life on Sunday, December 20, 2020.
