Regina Zoe Malloy-Lyons Obituary (1945 - 2023)

Regina Z. (Malloy) Lyons, 78; peacefully passed away on Saturday, June 10, 2023 surrounded by her loved ones at home in League City, Texas. "Gina" or as some called her "Jeannie" was born in Martinsburg, West Virginia on February 8, 1945 and grew up in Crafton, Pennsylvania with her one-of-a-kind Malloy family. Gina was a retired Radiologic Technologist who worked in many modalities at Alvin Hospital in Texas for many years. In 1991, Gina married Phillip "Bud" Lyons. She recently lost her life partner of 32 years due to Dementia in October 2022. "Gina" is preceded in death by her beloved husband Phillip "Bud" Lyons (Oct 2022); by her sister Mary (Malloy) Kovalovsky (May 2023), and Janet (Malloy) Paine (Sept 2015). She is survived by her daughters Jennifer Johnson and Tracey Martinez (Spouse Chris), sons, Phillip Lyons (Spouse Eric) and Wilton Lyons; grandchildren, Jayden Escamilla, Wilton Lyons II, Samantha Lyons, Logan Bennett-Lyons; her siblings, David P. Malloy, Nancy (Malloy) Golightly (Michael) and Jeri Anne Malloy along with numerous nieces and nephews. She will be remembered for her tenacious strength, indomitable spirit, kindness, her moral compass, authenticity, being the best dressed, witty humor and the love for her family. Her legacy is the foundation of family and being resilient in times of challenge. She was unassuming and humble and left us without knowing how bright her light shined on us. Our mom taught us the core of this lesson - "Courage does not always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, I will try again tomorrow." A Celebration of Gina's life will be held at Carnes Funeral Home at 3100 Gulf Freeway, Texas City, TX 77591 on Saturday, June 24, 2023. Visitation from 10:00 am-11:00 am, Chapel Funeral Service from 11:00 am-12:00 pm.
