  IN HONOR OF THE BELOVED MAURICE J. ``BUD'' MALEY OF MOUNT LAUREL, NJ

                                 ______

                             of new jersey

                    in the house of representatives

                        Friday, January 13, 2012

  Mr. ANDREWS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the beloved Maurice 
J. ``Bud'' Maley, one of the great pillars of the Mount Laurel, New 
Jersey community. Let us remember him, today and always, for both his 
benevolence and his endless drive to work toward the betterment of 
society.
  Always a venerable man of action, Bud never shied away from helping a 
community in need. After graduation from Northeast Catholic High School 
in Philadelphia, he recognized that need in his country and gallantly 
enlisted in the United States Army. It was decisions such as this one 
that truly separate Bud from the rest; he was always willing to serve.
  After his time in the military, Bud moved to New Jersey to share his 
talents and kindhearted spirit with the Cinnaminson and Mount Laurel 
communities. Until his retirement in 1989, Bud worked in communications 
sales for Western Electric and Alcatel-Lucent, surely with the same 
enthusiasm and dedication that he came to be known for.
  There is no doubt that Bud loved his community, but he took it a step 
further: he worked to better it. He was an avid member of the Saint 
Bernard's Home and School Finance Committee, the Knights of Columbus, 
the Western Tip and Ringers, and more. His work with these 
organizations undoubtedly touched many lives and helped the area 
prosper. Communities are able to stand strong because of people like 
Bud Maley.
  As for his passions, Bud had several great loves. He was a devoted 
and caring husband to his wife, Mary Lou, and a dedicated father to his 
three children, Jim, Maureen, and Marianne. Outside of his family life, 
Bud fell in love with videography and photography. His artwork was able 
to capture glimpses of his life that can now be cherished in his 
memory.
  Mr. Speaker, Mr. Maley's extraordinary actions and character are 
qualities to be emulated by future generations. His friends and family 
are in my thoughts and prayers during this time. He will always be 
remembered as a man of truly remarkable measures.
