The Kirkwood Family Bids Farewell To Their Beloved Mother And Wife Antoinette Adell Mahoney
Antoinette Adell Mahoney, along with her twin brother Anthony Odell Mahoney, were born to Neily and Naomi Mahoney December 16,1940. From birth, the twins were very close and started to protect each other coming out the womb. On July 24, 1942, their younger sister Iris Meredith Mahoney was born and it was like they were triplets! At an early age, the Mahoney children began participating in activities provided by the local park district and other community locations. Antoinette acquired a competitive spirit and developed a love for track, tennis, board games, reading and trivia. Her love for information made her a successful student at Park Manor Grammar School and Hirsh High School. After high school, Antoinette attended the University of Illinois (Urbana) and CTC, where she received a Bachelor’s Degree in Education and two Master degrees.
