Very sad to have learned of Mr. Malasky's passing. I was a vendor representative and used to visit Malasky Homes' office frequently. While I mostly met for account content with his son, Bruce, I spent almost equal time with Mr. Malasky who offered good, old fashioned business advice and never disappointed me by not having great stories to tell and of course jokes. Rest in peace, Mr. Malasky

So sorry to hear of Donalds passing. He was a good friend. I could always count of Donald to help me find a dentist, lawyer, car mechanic, etc etc. If Donald liked him he was good. I just saw this in the Shiny Sheet today, sorry I didn't know sooner, I would have been there at the service.

Don is an old high-school friend. We had many good times together when we were in our teens. When I think of Don, a warm smile comes to my face. We got together for dinner about a year ago in Palm Springs and I promised to call him for another reunion this coming year. I am saddened to lose a dear old friend.

The Malasky Family,

Very sorry to learn of Donald's passing away. We grew up within several blocks of each other
and I considered him a good friend of mine.

Even though the years and events kept us apart, I will always remember Donald as a good friend who will be missed.
