**In Loving Memory of Malik Benjamin Jones**

Malik "Spazz" Benjamin Jones was born on September 7, 1991, at Brookdale Hospital to De-Eet and Michael Jervey. He is survived by his beloved daughters, Cheyenne (Yanni) and Arianna (Dora), along with his siblings Micha Saren, Chandra Jervey, Anthony, Michael, Diaughn, and Kasseem Jones. He is also remembered by his family, including nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts, uncles, and cherished friends. Malik was preceded in death by his brother, Ramone Ware.

Growing up in the South Bronx, NY, Malik shared a close bond with his siblings, particularly with his younger brother Kasseem. Their connection was evident to all who knew them. Malik had an ability to brighten the lives of those around him, often bringing laughter and joy into every moment. His warm spirit and caring nature made him a dedicated son, loving brother, and devoted father who embraced the role of 'uncle' with fondness.

Malik's compassion was reflected in his everyday interactions, as he consistently reached out to others, asking “yo, you good?” He genuinely cared about the well-being of those he loved. With a dazzling smile and infectious laugh, Malik possessed a charm that endeared him to many, leaving a lasting impression on everyone he met.

In 2007, he met Brittany, who would become an integral part of his life. Their bond began with playful banter and blossomed into a loving relationship, leading to the birth of their two daughters—Cheyenne on February 12, 2010, and Arianna on April 2, 2014. Malik’s love for his girls was unwavering; he fiercely protected them and cherished every moment spent with them.

The color red held special significance for Malik, symbolizing his passion, love, and vibrant energy. It reflects the depth of his emotions and the intensity of his spirit. Family and friends wear red today in honor of Malik, celebrating the profound impact he had on our hearts and lives. His legacy will live on through his children and the memories shared with all who knew him.
