Malinda was truly one of a kind. There was no way that you could be anything but happy around her. She had such a way of cheering you up and making you smile. All she had to do was giggle with that contagious laugh and all your cares went away. So many great memories of her and all of the fun times we had at Grandpa Faatz's! Most of them involved teasing and torturing her like little knot headed cousins will do. She always took it stride and teased right along, but when she decided to get even... you had better watch out! She was always great to talk to and always genuinely wanted to know about me and my life and the things I was doing. She always cared for and put other people before herself. I will truly miss her, but I know for sure that she's making people smile and laugh where she is right now.
