Cynthia Malloy

Cynthia Malloy, affectionately known by everyone as “Emo” and regarded as a mother to all, went home to the Lord on Tuesday, June 2, 2026, at the young age of 75.

Born in Brooklyn, NY in Brookdale Hospital Center on February 28, 1951, she was the daughter of the late Thelma Brown and Ashley Carter. Cynthia was second oldest girl to five children.

Cynthia was a wise, nurturing and creative woman with many talents and a passion for the Most High. Cynthia was a Master Seamstress, and a Home Health Aide. She had a profound passion and love for Christ and would openly share the word whenever the opportunity presented itself. This love and gift landed her at Word of Life Ministries, a faith-based program where she was a Program Manager. Cynthia profoundly influenced and made a significant impact on the people she encountered throughout her life.

In addition to her parents, Cynthia was predeceased by her sister Gwen, niece Sharon, nephews Shawn and Aaron; her son Tracey Lee, husbands Franklin and Charvis, companion Moshe, and granddaughter De’nee.
