We were fortunate to travel with Mal in many International Friendship Harness Drivers competitions and he was an absolute delight to be around. A great Driver, a great Competitor and an extraordinary man.. WE MISS YOU!!!

Mal, We will love you and miss you always. I only new Mal for a couple of years as a patient and i can say that he was one of the Bravest patients i have ever met. We will miss you but will always remember you and Janet coming together through the door with a big smile on your face no matter how much pain you were in.. :( Mal was the most caring, loving and the most humble person ever!!! May you rest in peace Mal.
