Malcolm Wendell Moore was born on April 7th 1999 to Wanda Santos and Wendell Moore. Malcolm was blessed from birth; born into blended families he was showered with love from the very beginning.

Malcolm was raised between Chesapeake and Virginia Beach. A proud graduate of Tallwood High School.

Go Lions! He was employed at Virginia ABC store as he actively pursued his dream of becoming a Merchant Seaman. Malcolm was an avid lover of sports. A true Tom Brady fan that even made him a Buccaneer for the three seasons while Brady was with the team. The most loyal Phoenix Suns Fan EVER from Steve Nash days to Devin Booker days, staying up all night to watch them lose while hoping until the last second they'd turn things around. The last couple of years he had been excited to attend hockey, basketball, baseball, and boxing matches with his loved ones.

Malcolm was a gentle giant with an old soul. A little brother to half of his siblings and a big brother to the other. Whatever mood he was in was what version of him you got, he could be a kid, an adult, and an old head all at once. He would have conversations with older men leaving them scratching their heads and affirming he had definitely been here before. Malcolm had the gift of making everyone he met feel special, heard, seen and important. Fondly Known as 'My Moon' to his mom because of his calm nature and pure heart his presence stabalized the chaos and provided moonlight in my darkness. To his sister Mia he was fat face because in his younger years his face was rounded and as he grew and slimmed up, as his little sister she had to keep him grounded and remind him of who he used to be. To family and friends he was known as Dweeb, Malc Man, Lil Squeeze and more. His sense of humor was an acquired taste as usually he and sometimes he and his brother Marcus were the only one who thought the antics were funny.

Malcolm was a beautiful soul with an infectious smile and you couldn't help but laugh with him. Malcolm was humbe, kind, authentic, brave, selfless and truly One of a Kind.

His family was the light of his life and he the light of theirs. On October 29th, 2025 Malcolm was tragically taken from their lives and although dimmer, his family will ensure his light continues to shine bright. Forever.

Malcolm is preceded in death by his beloved grandmothers Miriam Moore and Emily Jean Fraser, his childhood friend Nasir J. Johnson, and his grandfather Francisco Santos Jr.
