Phoenix Emerson Joseph Haske, age 1, our loving, warm, smiling, and happy son, brother, grandson, great-grandson, nephew, and cousin, completed his earthly journey on Friday, November 1, 2024, surrounded by the love and warmth of his family.
Phoenix was born on June 22, 2023, in Saginaw, Michigan, to parents Michael Haske & Machaela Malmberg. Proud brother to SkyLynn, Dominic, and Roman. Phoenix was a happy young boy who enjoyed watching football & wrestling, taking naps, and holding on to his stuffed animals, especially his stuffed raccoon. He liked being outside and enjoyed camping trips and riding on the quad. He was a bright light in the lives of those who knew and loved him. His radiant smile will live on forever. Phoenix will be deeply missed.
He is forever loved by his parents, Michael & Machaela; siblings, SkyLynn, Dominic, and Roman; grandparents: Robin & Corey Pease, Joseph Malmberg, Mary & Mike Haske; as well as great-grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and extended family.
