There are no words to fully express how I felt about Malek. The incredible Bond I had with him has left me heartbroken with his passing. My deepest condolences to his beautiful mother Ursula, his father, uncles, brothers, sisters, nieces, nephews & cousins I know he adored. And also to his daughter Sway who he loved so very much. Forever loved, forever missed Lek Hustle.💙
Since I met him in 1st grade he was always such a sweetheart. When I heard that my first love had passed away my heart broke into so many pieces.
He’s in a better place now, he’s finally home. Prayers sent out to his family and friends
RIP Lek Lek, your 1❤️
