Robert Clyde Mallett

August 07, 1938 ~ January 15, 2021

Robert C. (Bob) Mallett, 82, of Kalamazoo MI, passed away on January 15, 2021, at his home in Vero Beach, Florida after a brief illness.  Bob was born August 7, 1938 to Jeff and Edythe Mallett and was raised in Bangor, Michigan.  He graduated from Lincoln Christian College and lived his life serving the Lord wherever and whenever he could.

 

Bob served as the minister at various churches in Indiana and Michigan.  He later worked in the business offices at Kentucky Christian College and Indiana Vocational Technical College.  However, he is most well-known for his role as the first Camp Manager at Michiana Christian (Service) Camp in Niles, MI.  He served there for 16 years (1967-1983). Although decades have passed, he is still fondly remembered by former campers, faculty and staff for his hard work and his smile.  He was a mentor to many and his lifelong goal was to share the gospel of Jesus Christ.

 

Bob began making wooden Chrismons for his family and friends in 1988.  The Christian symbol ornaments became his mission project and thousands have been sold around the world.  Bob supported various missions, campers, and people in need with the proceeds from his Chrismons.

 

Bob is survived by his wife, Carol; son, Tim (Becky) of Kalamazoo, MI; daughter, Mary Lynn (Tom) Herrod of Joplin, MO; granddaughters Whitney Herrod (Jalal) Khader and Natalie Zwonitzer; grandsons, Geoffrey Mallett and Sean Mallett; and a future great-grandson, Reyan Khader.

 
Memorial contributions can be mailed to Michiana Christian Camp, 7383 Steinbauer Rd., Niles, MI 49120, or online at https://Michianacamp.org (indicate Robert Mallett in the comment section).

  • The service from Millennium was outstanding. Rachel was sweet, personable and very comforting. It was important to me that my dad was kept locally where I knew where he would be. Very nice facility, state of the art and quality of my fathers remains were so refined compared to my mothers years ago. I highly recommend this place for an affordable choice for your loved one. Thank you for making an already stressful event easy. With high regards, the Esposito and Keith Family.

  • Millennium Cremation provided a fantastic service to our family at a difficult time. Our beloved mother passed away in Vero Beach and the rest of the family was in other parts of the country. Due to the Covid health crisis, none of us could get to Vero Beach in person. That's where Millennium took over. They helped us manage everything, coordinated with a cemetery in Maine, managed the obituaries, expedited all the paperwork, and even delivered an important document locally that saved us days. Funeral director Rachel was a godsend, and she made it clear what she was going to do, and what we needed to do. If you know what you want, Millennium is highly recommended, and the savings versus the full service mortuaries is significant.
