Malcolm was the fourth child of Edwin McIntosh and Annie "Nan" Hulme. He had the misfortune to be born into a broken home that further disintegrated around him as a youth. Although he finished school, he was not at home in this world and told of hearing Jesus suggesting he go out to a forest to live. His recital of these suggestions fell on hardened hearts. I had been led by my father to be an atheist and my ex-wife, who was a psychologist and should have known better, also rejected him. After several years of attempted treatment as a psychiatric patient, he took his own life. In my eulogy for him, I stated our challenge now is to find meaning for us in his life.
