My prayers are with you and your family during this very difficult time. I truely know what you are going through since I was in your shoes just 6 months ago for my mom. Everyone tells me things will get easier with time. It just seems like time moves slowly. However, as long as God moves time, things will happen in His timeing and you can't go wrong with that!:) Stay encouraged and lean on Him. He is there now and always. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help.

Queenie & Fonda
We are never emotionally prepared for that moment when we are faced with the realization that our loved one has physically left us. But when that moment comes and we know in our heart of hearts that we did what we could and all we could ...that's when the Lord offers His peace to rest in our souls. He provides us with a storehouse of memories to draw from and as each day passes, some type of rememberance of Floyd's LOVE and his life here on earth will resonate in your souls.
I know you will miss your loving and devoted husband & dad, FLOYD MALONE and I pray that God continues to give you strenght for the journey.
Please accept my heartfelt sympathy during this time of your loss and I...
Love You to Life

Uncle Floyd,
What can I say? Definitely you will be missed by all, especially me. I have told you this but I need to say it one more time; thanks for being there as my friend, confidant, role model as a very hard worker, a family man and a father figure. I truly enjoyed those days of going to the pier and fishing, crabbing and talking. Those trips that we all took as a family with mom (JoeAnna) and my dad, George Russell will always be remembered. Thanks for the support and positive words to only enhance my life as I have grown into an adult.
Aunt Queenie (Yang Yang) affectionately known to me, my favorite cousin Fonda and baby girl Stephany will always be in my life. I know you are safely home with your sister now, so tell her that I miss her so very much and I know she is keeping you and Uncle Allen close. Love you then, now and always.
Your Niece,
Joan Elizabeth Russell Jones

My Dear "Daddy Malone" -- I remember so clearly how he always had some sort of funny phrase and sound advice during the high school years (and some college) for me and my best friend, Fonda. In fact, I can still hear his voice and the funny names and sayings that he had for me and Fonda when we thought that we were grown, being slick and/or knew it all. I just thank God for blessing me with the opportunity to see him one last time at Stephy's birthday party last month. Daddy Malone will truly be missed but not forgotten. I know in my heart that he will continue to keep a smile on his face as well as keep them all laughing up there!
Love you Fonda & Mommy Queenie and I will see you very soon. Your "other daughter,"
