Malachi was one of those students who always made me smile! Sometimes, when he would walk past my classroom, we would just smile or chuckle at each other. Last year, while my husband and I were having dinner at Cherry Street Pub, Malachi came over to say hi and sat with us for quite some time while we caught up on his lifes adventures. It was so nice to see him as an adult. I will miss him beyond words!
The face of an angel; pretty eyes that shine...
Go rest high on that mountain, Malachi.
Love, Mrs B

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always. I went to school with him. I remember him sticking up for me when people kept making fun of me, he was such a sweet person. He will be dearly missed.

I went to FU with Malachi. I met him in 7th grade in gym class. He was so funny. He was one of my Biology II lab partners in high school as well. He was so smart when it came to topics he liked. I used to go to Krogers a lot. Every time he would stop what he was doing and come talk to me for a few minutes. Once when I was about 8 months pregnant and could barely walk, he comes up to me with a shocked looked on his face. He asked me how I got so fat. We laughed so hard, I about peed myself standing there. He made sure to tell me through his laughing he was just joking and he had to while he had the chance. He had this sense of humor that was saying things that you werent actually supposed to say out loud. Im praying for you Malachi. Im praying for your family and close friends because I know you are a huge loss. Rest In Peace & I hope youre somewhere happy.

Malachi always made anyone around him smile even on their darkest days. He was a true light for may people. I will always consider him a good friend and he will be dearly loved and missed by many. My fondest memory of Mal was sitting in our study hall class joking around and doodling on each others arms and just enjoying each others company. My heart hurts deeply for his family and friends. May his spirit rest peacefully. ♥ You are more loved than you know Malachi

I am Trevor Kohen's older sister. Trevor always spoke so fondly of Malachi. He really loved him as a brother and I am so thankful that Trevor had such a great friend. Just within the past few weeks Trevor was telling me how happy he was that he was seeing more of Malachi. Your family is in my thoughts.
