Uncle Malcolm was one of my favorite guys. I will always remember him smoking his cigars and watching college football. Our family enjoyed great times at the cabin hunting Easter eggs and fishing with the old cane poles. I will never forget his classic Malcolm comments when he visited us in Kansas for the first time and wondered where all the trees were. He will me greatly missed by all. I send my love to my family back in Georgia. I will keep you all in my thoughts.

What a wonderful life to have loved one beautiful woman for his whole life and to have raised a favorite girl child of mine. I am thankful that Mr."Mac" and Mrs. Brown allowed Denise to go see a Walt Disney movie with me. The love of animals is something Denise and I share. May God keep and lift up the family and all the friends who have been touched by Mr. Brown's passing, until we meet again.
