I was the school secretary at Kirkmere School when Malachi and his brother Jalachi attended there. Such nice, pleasant, respectful boys. Malachi would always come to the office to say hello and chat and his visits always made my day. I am truly sorry to hear of his passing. May you rest with the angels, Malachi. Lora Gayan
