Wrella, you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. We just learned of Malton's passing on Sunday, therefore, we missed the opportunity to be there for the service. We enjoyed being with you both when we had the opportunity. Malton will be greatly missed. We are praying for strength and comfort for you in the days ahead.

Mrs Purser, Wendi and family, you all are in our thoughts and prayers.

Of course words can never adequately convey how thankful I was to work for and with Mr. Purser during my time at PWS. He was always a gentleman and a great mentor to me and many others.

We are so sorry to hear of Mr Maltons passing. Only learned of it today, Oct 1. He was a very special person and remember that smile and laugh. Mrs Purser, I know you will miss him and so will the children, but he will be missed by all those that knew him. The Pursers have always been a very special couple.

Wrella and family, we are so sorry for your loss, but know Malton is now resting in the hands of our Lord. We will never forget his large smile. He was a blessing to everyone! I remember his quoting Romans 8:28, And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. He stated at the time this was his favorite verse.

God bless each of you!

I cannot think of Trinity Baptist Church without thinking of Mr. Malton always smiling, always working quietly behind the scenes, always welcoming everyone. We are so fortunate to have known him.

It has been such an honor and privilege these last few months to be Malton's Sunday School teacher. I will miss him greatly. His words of encouragement were consistent and he was a faithful student of God's Word. We hurt that he is gone from us, but we're thankful for the security of his relationship with Christ.

I have a photo of my son meeting his Great - Great Uncle Malton and Aunt Wrella for the first time, soon after we brought my son home. Uncle Malton was plum tickled pink about Cooper! Aunt Wrella I love you a bushel and a peck and I'm so glad that Cooper got to have Uncle Malton in his life.

Malton was a kind and generous man to all who were fortunate enough to know him. With a smile on his face and a story to tell, he was such a wonderful caring person. It was evident from his stories the love he had for his family, friends, community and God. The world lost an amazing person too soon, but we pray his family takes comfort in knowing he is flying high in the sky upon the angels now. He will forever watch over you and protect you. Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire family during this time of sorrow. Doug, Lynnette and the Boys
