My beautiful sister Malia Kenney passed away this morning. She has been dealing with Cushings Disease for the past 18 yrs or so.
She has been in the hospital and physical rehab since November with 2 different types on Pneumonia’s. Her poor heart just couldn’t take it anymore.
She was such a beautiful person inside and out and I will miss her so much.
I LOVE YOU BIA

I met Malia just a few months ago. She was such a joy to visit with. I had the opportunity to meet her parents as well and found out her father is from my home town in Ohio. I will miss her bright smile and cheerful laugh. My heart goes out to her family and friends.
