A Father Remembers

Passed from this world to eternal life & entered Heaven - May 6, 2000

While on this earth
was a Loving Son to Pauline & I

Brother to Toni Fletcher & Jim Wilcox,
Brother-in-law to David Fletcher,
Grandson to Ethel Prettyman and Jim & Joan Wilcox
Loving life Partner to Carolyn Hall,
with whom he shared a “Special” deep relationship.

Uncle to Eric, Cathy, Mike Fletcher & Nick Hammann.
Nephew to Earl, George, Danny and Keith Prettyman.
Cousin to many,
and Friend to all.

I see many different groups, as his interests varied. Each area of life had a nickname -

Lil’ Mac (hated Malcolm)
Shorty (Outdooor School)
Mac Hawke (Internet)
Malcolm (Accepted)

If you knew him by more than one name you were more blessed than others.

Most Favorite……… Friends of all Kinds

Song - My Best Friend

Not many possessions, only many “Friends”, but the measure of a man lies not in the things he leaves behind, but rather in the people whose lives he touches and betters.

He treated everyone the same, only different.

Remembrances

I had him convinced that I had arranged fireworks just for his Birthday, when I asked if he would like to do it again next year, he said "yeah". That lasted until he started school.

As a Singing Waiter at the Rhinelander Restaurant in Portland, he sang to Dolly Parton, said he had a hard time looking her in the eyes.

I really didn’t think I’d last this long, but Shorty and I had talked about doing each others eulogy when something happened to the other, I certainly didn’t think the Father would be doing this for the Son.

Malcolm was an organ donor, they told us they had a 30 year old person who could use one of his eyes, he is still helping someone to see the World in a different light.

You will sorely be missed by many “Son”

MISS ME

When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me
I want not rites in a gloom filled room
Why cry for a soul set free
Miss me a little, but not too long
And not with your head bowed low
Remember the Love that we once shared
Miss me, but let me go

For this is a Journey all must take
And each must go alone
It is all part of the masters plan
A step on the road to home

When you are lonely and sick of heart
Go to the Friends we know
And bury your sorrow in doing good deeds
Miss me but let me go

Malcolm Wilcox, Sr.
