May 3, 1941 – July 28, 2022
Malcolm passed away on July 28th, 2022 in his hometown, Kamloops, B.C.
Malcolm was a diamond driller his entire life and owned his own company, “Diamond M Drilling Exploration, Down Deep We Care”. He grew up with, and worked alongside his brothers, Glen and Leo Shaw. Malcolm was very close to his brothers, who he made many fond memories with.
Malcolm also grew up spending time with his cousin Mervin Rice. They spent time together on the farm in Archerwill alongside other family, and in later years had many more visits. Malcolm always looked forward to their time together. They were more than cousins; Malcolm was like the big brother Mervin never had.
Malcolm then raised his son Wayne Shaw on his own. He did this with great care like everything else in his life. Malcolm would always make the very best dinners for his son from pork chops to roasts every night.
Through the later years Malcolm loved spending time with his grandson Dustin. From the horse races, to time in his tomato garden out in Dallas, they did it all together. Malcolm and his granddaughter Jessica always enjoyed their time together as well, especially drives listening to Johnny Cash, where the journey was always better than the destination.
Malcolm enjoyed many of the simple things in life; a cup of coffee at the A&W with his friends Stan and Carol, going down to the casino with 5$ to meet his other coffee friends, or chinese dinner surrounded by family. Malcolm also liked a good Rodeo or Pow wow.
Malcolms’ final resting place will be beside his beloved mother Margaret Shaw and his special Aunt Donnie Rice in Archerwill, Sk. At Malcolms request, there will be no service held for him.
Malcolm will be forever remembered and survived by his brothers and sister in laws, Leo and Norma, Glen and Donna, his son Wayne, his daughter SusAnn, his grandson Dustin, his granddaughter Jessica, and great granddaughter Mabel.
