Chanley Milton Mohney, 76, of North Chesterfield, formerly of Northern Virginia, passed away on December 6, 2025.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Guy M. Mohney and Betty A. (Knapp) Mohney. Chanley is survived by his devoted wife of 56 years, Debbie A. Mohney; daughter, Kerensa M. Sheehan (Vince L. Sheehan); son, Geoffrey A. Mohney; beloved grandson, Ryan D. Sheehan; siblings, Duane Mohney (Ann), Dwight Mohney (Debbie), and Sonya Mohney; along with numerous nieces, nephews, extended family members, friends, and his faithful dog, Russell.
Chanley dedicated over 30 years of service as an analyst with the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), a career that allowed him to travel the world. A lifelong learner, he cherished books immeasurably-amassing a collection of more than 8,000 volumes-and had a particular passion for history and military history. His love of knowledge and community inspired him to volunteer with organizations such as Friends of the Chesterfield County Library, the United Services Organizations (USO), and the Knights of Columbus, where he served as a past Grand Knight and Past Faithful Navigator.
