Malachi Dufek Obituary

Malachi Joshua Dufek

Malachi Joshua Dufek passed from his parents' arms and into the arms of Jesus on Saturday, February 8, 2014 at 9:30 p.m. Malachi lived for 40 precious hours where he only knew love in the care of his family. He is, and always will be, greatly missed and remembered. Malachi is survived by his parents, Nick and Christina Dufek, his big brothers Noah (4yr) and Logan (1yr), his maternal grandparents Randy and Gail Huberty, and paternal grandparents Gary Dufek and Abigail Gotstein. In honor of Malachi, a Celebration of Life Service will be at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday, February 18, 2014, at CHRIST THE ROCK COMMUMNITY CHURCH, W6254 Highway 10-114, Menasha, with Rev. Bill Lenz officiating. Friends may call directly at the church on Tuesday from 4:30 p.m. until the time of services. In memory of our precious son, please wear something blue. Nick and Christina would like to send a tremendous thank you to the Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep photography organization, who captured beautiful pictures of Malachi's brief time with us, and also to the wonderful nursing staff at St. Elizabeth Hospital.
