Obituary

Malcom W. Lehman, 70, of Berne, Indiana passed away on June 19, 2020 at his residence surrounded by his family following a complicated illness.

He was born on January 14, 1950 in Decatur, Indiana to the late Peter P. Lehman and the late Lydia (Garber) Lehman.

Malcom retired following 34 years of exemplary service with UPS in Fort Wayne as a driver – a great source of pride for him.

He was a member of Teamsters Local 710.

Being involved with his family was very important to Malcom. He provided a safe haven for his children along with his grandchildren by supporting them in their activities throughout their lives. He was a constant supporter and critic in those activities. Camping was an important family gathering time for him. Many holidays and vacations were spent in campgrounds, with Malcom as the supervisor.
