Jeffrey Malone, born on October 28, 1963, and raised in Walbridge, Ohio, passed away peacefully on September 26, 2025. He was a loving husband, devoted father, and cherished grandfather, who will be dearly missed by all who knew him.

Jeff was raised in Walbridge, where he cultivated a strong work ethic that defined his life.

Most recently, he worked at MIBA Bearings, where he built lasting relationships with his colleagues.

In 1984, Jeff married the love of his life, Deb, and together they shared a wonderful 41 years filled with love, laughter, and treasured memories. For the past 12 years, they made their home in McConnelsville, Ohio..

A passionate sports fan, Jeff followed his beloved Miami Dolphins and Auburn Tigers with great enthusiasm. He had a special fondness for UFC fights and would often gather with family and friends to share in the excitement of the games. However, nothing brought him more joy than spending quality time with his family, especially his grandchildren: MecKinzy, Landon, and Angel. His love for them was boundless, and he relished every moment he had with them.

Jeff is survived by his wife, Deb; his daughter, Brittany; his grandchildren; brothers-in-law, Charles (Kerry) Derr and David (Lori) Derr; and many nieces and nephews who will remember him fondly.

He was preceded in death by his son, Marcus Malone; his parents, Billy and Marjorie Malone; his brother, Randy Malone; and his sister, Kathy Venzke. Their memories will always remain in the hearts of those he leaves behind.

A private service will be held for the family, as they take time to reflect on the wonderful life Jeff led and the love he shared with all of them. He will be remembered for his kindness, his strength, and his unwavering love for his family.
