My dad was one of the best dads anyone could ever have! Im so lucky he was mine. Not a day goes by where I don't think about him and miss him very much. Im very blessed that he was around to meet by children and be there when they were born. Thank you all for your kind words. His time was short but at least he had a great time while he was here. Love you dad and miss you so very much

Malcolm was an incredible brother and my best friend. He was always there when I needed him and I'll miss him for the rest of my life. Love you Malc. Reunited with Mum and Dad.

Malcolm was the brother i never had and boy didnt i know it! The scrapes we used to g with et into over the years had our mothers gasping in disbelief!!! Malc,you always took the time to come and see William which i will never forget and neither did he. 
You treated life as one big joke and never had a bad word to say about anyone. I loved sitting in the kitchen discussing recipes and drinking copious amounts of beer!!! I love you Malc and hope you are catching up with all the gossip with the oldies. Missing you so much,love Michelle,Luke and Victoria xxxxxx

Remember going to work in the 80's at Nedlloyd, Malcolm was funny and always was never a dull moment when he was around.  He did have great love for his family.  I will keep them in my prayers. Rest in peace Malcolm.

This is Dawn Schubert, George's spouse. The Heart Walk is this weekend, and I will be walking in honor of Malcolm. I am sure he was a great man and deserves a great following. I was having a hard time deciding who to walk for because I have lost a couple of colleagues this past year but, when this ocurred, there was no doubt who I would be putting on my sign on Saturday!

Our deepest sympathies go to his family and loved ones.

You will be missed Malcolm. I remember with a lot of affection how we spent our school holidays together. I never used to get into trouble until you visited! You may be gone but will never be forgotten. Your cousin Jacquie xxx

I had the opportunity to meet Malcolm only briefly but know he brought a great deal of love to his partner Cathy and that they had a very special relationship and knew how one another felt about each other. I also had the opportunity to meet some of the people that Malcolm worked with and it was evident he brought love and light to those he encountered. Rest in Peace Malcolm.

Suddenly, the world becomes a little less interesting.
Deepest sympathy to his family and those who loved him

I can't believe Malc is no longer with us.  He was one of the most fun loving, generous people I've ever known.

I first met Malc 44 years ago at school and right away I knew life would always be an adventure when he was around.   I remember always looking forward to our times together.  He had a knack for finding fun in almost any situation and I could write pages about the times we had and the scrapes we got into.

When Malc when to the States he created a new life for himself and a new family.  His girls were a very important part of his life and he was very proud of them. In his last years I was so pleased he had met Cathy and found a new partner to share his life with.

I'm really sorry I can't there to say my goodbyes to Malc in person. He was a big part of my life and I will miss him very much.

I remember Malcolm with great fondness. We worked together in the 80s in Houston. He was always good for a laugh and could make a container or chassis appear from nowhere. Malcolm adored his family and lived out loud. Rest in peace. My condolences to his family and dear friends.

Malc, 

We always had fun when we were together, lots of laughs and never a dull moment.

By the way your cooking was always FG.

PS...you still owe me the money for the Super Bowl squares...I expect payment!

I tried calling you on your cell, but as normal you never answered, but dont worry I'm going to send you a text!

Have fun where ever you may be.

One day we're meet again, but not anytime soon, I hope!

Miss you lots.

What Sarah said to me on Thursday evening, was so true :
"Today I lost my father, and you lost your brother"

Malcolm,
I never knew you well, but I know you brought much joy to Cathy. You were a real character and you will be missed.

Although Malcolm was only with us a few short months, he was part of our China Shipping family.  He was very kind and a joy to work with.  He will surely be missed.

Malcolm was a great mentor to me, and I will always remember his smile and laugh. He will be missed immensely.

My sympathy to the family during this difficult time.  I knew him for a short period of time while working at China Shipping, but I will always remember that smile on his face, and the twinkle in his eye.

"Whenever I saw Malcolm he always had a smile on his face and was always full of joy. The happy and joyful memories will always be here "
Thank you

So sorry for your loss.  I hope the wonderful memories of Malcolm sustain you through the difficult times.

Back in the 80's, I had the pleasure of working with Malcolm.  Not a day went by without a quality to the day  Malcolm brought along that not only served to make me smile but provided me with inspiration both professionally and personally.

Malcolm was such an inspiration and a great person to know. He ventured into the culinary world and mastered it beautifully while always adding a bit of joy with every encounter. So blessed to have known him, he will be missed.

"If you were fortunate to know Malcolm, you had a friend for life. Always that smile during good times and bad. I was blessed to have know him these many years. I will miss you my friend."

Whenever I saw Malcolm he always had a smile on his face and was always full of joy. The happy and joyful memories will always be in everyones heart of those who knew him. Our prayers and blessings go to his Daughters,Sister and family. May the emptiness and sadness disipate quickly and sweet memories of Malcolm's life persist.
He will be sadly missed.

I have been fortunate over the past 26 years to have a handful of happy and humorous memories of Malcolm. A day spent at Lyme Regis, Dorset with him and Sarah on a trip to the UK. Several times out at the Indian restaurant in Bridport where mom and Ray lived. Another night out in Dorset filled with several drinks and much laughter that ended with Malcolm having to pay far too much for our taxi home and then once home the two of us attempting to take our contacts out! A comment made by Ray the following day of our 'interesting night out'! In April this year we met again and somehow managed to do the shopping and end up at the pub! We shared a walk on the beach and it was at this time, although a very difficult time, Malcolm was calm, content and happy. I'm so glad that I was able to see him and Jane then.

Thank you Malcolm, for taking me on your trail. I wish you an eternity of peace.
Although I am not there with you all, you are in my heart. Much love to Jane, Jenny, Sarah, Rebecca, Gerry, Katy and Cailin.  Thinking of you all, Liz

My happiest memories of you will be of your zest for life and my most cherished memories will be of the love that you had for your children. Jennifer, Sarah, and Rebecca you know that my thoughts and prayers are with all of you and your family and his friends...... I will miss him too

My best memories of Malcolm will always be for the zest with which he lived each day of his life. My fondest memories will always be of how proud he was and how much he loved his children. Jennifer, Sarah and Rebecca, know that my prayers and loving thoughts are with each of you girls.  His laughter will always be remembered.....,, please let me know if I can do anything for any of you.  
 Love, Liz

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

Our heartfelt sympathy sent to each of you during this difficult and sad time.
