Malchow, Carl J.
Went home to the Lord December 4, 2019 at the age of 94. Beloved husband of Lorraine (nee Daege). Loving father of Donald (Kathy), Gary (Arnnette), Lorraine Denton, and April (John) Rettela.

Carl was very proud of his service in the Navy during WWII. He worked at Borden's Milk Company for 23 years and Hopson Oil Company for 19 years. Carl's favorite pastimes were fishing and hunting. A special thanks to Grand Hills Castle and Aseracare Hospice for their wonderful and loving care.

God grant that I may live to fish
Until my dying day
And when it comes to my last cast
I then most humbly pray
When in the Lord's safe landing net
I'm peacefully asleep
That in his mercy I be judged
As good enough to keep
