He proudly served his country for over 40 years, including 26 years active duty and 16 years as a civilian Senior Logistician at Wright-Patterson AFB, OH.

In retirement Mal enjoyed his family and friends, traveling, and he was especially proud of raising a large garden to provide fresh vegetables for The House of Bread in Dayton, Ohio. His trademark farewell to all would be “Take it easy”.
