Now that I've come to the end of the road, And the sun has set for me, I want no rites in a gloom-filled room, Why cry for a soul set free? Miss me a little, but not too long, And not with your head bowed low; Remember the love that we once shared, Miss me, but let me go. For this is a journey that we all must take, And each must go alone. It's all a part of the Master's plan, A step on the road to home. When you are lonely and sick at heart, Go to Jesus whom we know, Laugh at the things we used to do. Miss me, but let me go.
The family of the late Malichi Jacobs wishes to acknowledge with heartfelt appreciation all expressions of sympathy extended to us during this most difficult time. Your prayers, calls, and other gestures of love have made this time easier to bear. May God forever bless each of you as you keep us in your prayers.

The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free I’m following the path God has laid for me. I took his hand when I heard his call,
Final Farewell to Our Beloved Malichi .............................. BTFH Staff Hymn of Praise ................................. Reverend Stanley R. Ladson, Sr.
I turned my back and left it all. Malichi Jacobs was born on August 3, 1934. He was the beloved son of the late Roosevelt and Lillie Patterson Jacobs. He departed this life and was called home to be with the Lord on Tuesday, October 31, 2017. Malichi was educated in the public schools of Richland County. He retired from Creed Construction after working 40 years. He was preceded in death by all of his siblings and a grandson, Tony Jr. He was a loving husband to Kissie Mae Washington Jacobs for 52 years. Although he is no longer physically with us, his loving and kind spirit will forever live in the hearts and lives of all that love and knew him. Those who will forever cherish fond and precious memories of Malichi are his devoted sons: Anthony (Daisy) Scott, Melvin (Judy) Scott, Andrew Scott, Christopher (Brenda) Scott, Eric “Bee” Jacobs, and Stacy (Denise) Jacobs; his loving daughters, Willistine H. Anderson and Sharon Washington; and his grandchildren: Rayvon, Rashad, Trent, Marquita, Brent, Adrienne, Tesha, Nicki, Keianna, Staci, Eric, Courtney, Darius, Malich, and Logan. He also leaves to mourn his passing, five brothers-in-law: Andrew (Elizabeth), Leroy, Allen (Mary) Washington, Frank (Mae) Taylor, Harry (Dot) Taylor; two sisters-in-law, Estelle Taylor and Mary (Albert) Reese; and a host of nieces, nephews, and dear friends.
I could not stay another day, To laugh, to love, to work, or play,

I found the peace at the close of the day. If my parting has left a void, Then fill it with remembered joys. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, Oh yes, these things I too will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow,

I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief, Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your heart and peace to thee God wanted me now; He set me free.
