We are praying for all your family. Walter Clyde has been such a faithful servant of God though all these years.- Grady and Norita Higgs

I was so sorry to hear of Bro Malone's passing. He was friends with my Mom and Dad and my Uncle Harry and Aunt Verla when he was in South Arkansas. My condolences to his wife and family.

Bro. Malone was one of the few truly humble men of God I have known. He was a dear friend of my Dad. I’m sure they are rejoicing in the presence of their God today! Praying for all of you during this time!

Bro. Malone was my pastor at Hall Summit Baptist Church in the 1980's. What a wonderful pastor and friend he was to all of the members of our church. We loved him dearly.

Walter Clyde was a very sweet, kind gentleman that I was blessed to know through my grandmother Dudney. She loved him like a son. I was always happy to visit with him. He was very proud of his children and grandchildren. His Christian presence will be missed.

I am so sorry to read of Bro Walter's passing but I would not wish him back from his heavenly rewards for a second. We have been blessed to be a part of Bro Walters Wednesday night Bible Study class as well as his Sunday morning class. He loved the Lord, His Word, and His people. He was a sweet and humble man whom we will miss dearly. We will hold up Ms Betty and the rest of his family to the Lord for comfort and peace that only He can give.

I just learned of Mr. Malone's passing and I am so sorry. I really enjoyed chatting with him at church. He was a man of God and a great asset to the community. I know he touched many more lives than mine, and we were all blessed to have known him. Condolences to Betty and the entire family.

Our prayers. Always impressed with Bro Malone. Such a humble man of God. I remember how he would use preachers from Central Baptist on youth Sundays at his churches, sharing with those young men his servant’s heart. Always the encourager. Bless the family.
