Lt. Lawrence Moloney, Jr.; Lawrence Moloney Sr.; Cpl. James E. Moloney, Paul J. Moloney. Taken before the two soldiers were sent overseas. This was the final visit home for Lawrence T. Moloney Jr. who was killed in December, 1944 at the Battle of the Bulge. Paul, who was a senior at St. Mary's High School, became a Brookline police officer when he returned from the war.

Lawrence Moloney graduated from St. Mary’s High School in 1937, attended Suffolk University and Georgetown Law School. Despite the fact that he held a civil service job in Washington DC, which precluded him from the military draft, he enlisted in the Army in 1943. He became an officer (Lieutenant) and was eventually deployed overseas with the 128th infantry division in the fall of 1944. He was killed in action December 20, 1944, at Elsenbourne Ridge, Belgium, in the Battle of the Bulge. His body was initially interred by the military in the Field of Flanders, Belgium, but was finally flown back to the US in 1947 and returned to Brookline, where he was buried in a military service at Holyhood Cemetery in Chestnut Hill. Lt. Lawrence T. Moloney Square at the intersection of Cypress and Walnut Sts. is named in his honor.
